SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- The WorldTracker SMS is equipped
with a SiRFstarIII chipset and a Siemens MC-46 tri-band GSM module, the unit
measures just 2.56 by 1.7 by 1.1 inches (45 by 66 by 25 millimeters) and
weighs a mere 3.1 ounces (87 grams).  The device is completely self-contained
and features built-in GPS and GSM antennas, as well as a rechargeable lithium
ion battery.  It is small enough to place on a belt or in a purse, hide inside
of a vehicle, or easily integrate into machinery.
    SiRFstarIII technology allows for extra sensitive reception outdoors,
indoors and through metal.  WorldTracker SMS provides real-time navigation in
urban canyons as well as high sensitivity acquisition needed for indoor use.
    WorldTracker SMS features a WAAS-enabled GPS receiver.  The Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Department of Transportation (DOT)
developed the WAAS program for use in precision flight approaches.  WAAS
boosts GPS signal integrity and corrects for errors caused by atmospheric
disturbances, timing, and satellite orbit errors.  A WAAS-capable receiver
will give you a position accuracy of better than three meters 95 percent of
the time.
    Location information can be reported to a cell phone or PDA using SMS
messages without the use of a computer or website.
    The WorldTracker SMS works worldwide thanks to its support of the three
major GSM frequency bands: 900/1800 MHz worldwide and 1900 MHz in the U.S.
    The WorldTracker SMS is designed to send short message service (SMS)
messages containing location and status information.  With its geofencing
ability, users can define an area and set the unit in park mode.  If the unit
moves beyond its predefined limits, it will automatically send an alert
message to a cell phone with its current location.  The unit also features an
emergency button, which a carrier can use to alert others in the event of an
emergency such as a kidnapping.
    The device is always active and has a rechargeable lithium ion battery
that provides 24 hours of power.  Optional battery packs can increase power
life to as many as 30 days, and the unit also can be either plugged into or
wired for 12-volt direct current power.
    Security Concepts (http://www.trackingtheworld.com) offers complete
service for a monthly fee.  Users can use Google Earth, which combines
satellite imagery, 3D maps and the power of Google search to create a complete
virtual earth.  By using Google Earth, users eliminate the need to update
separate mapping software and pay monthly licensing and maintenance fees for
mapping software.
