Particle has today announced it is launching a new IoT-powered tracking system, capable of providing organisations with the ability to track the locations of a wide variety of mobile assets.
The edge-to-cloud IoT business has found that asset tracking is one of the three most in-demand applications for IoT engineers and industry experts. The new Particle tracking system has been built with components of the company’s IoT hardware, edge software connectivity and cloud-based management software all involved.
Users can utilise the application to track the real-time location of critical assets and capture additional intelligence via sensor data, including temperature and acceleration. Asset tracking is crucial for any organisation, established or emerging, and this is especially important to supply chain and logistics providers, cold chain operations and more. Next-generation, IoT based technologies enable more sophisticated solutions than conventional asset tracking tools.
Uses of Particle’s asset tracking tool
Zach Supalla, Particle’s CEO, said: “IoT is an extraordinarily broad industry, and many businesses who want to remotely monitor or control their machines and equipment don’t have high-quality off-the-shelf IoT products available to them that suit their needs,”
“With Particle’s new Asset Tracking developments, we are providing a field-ready product that can be modified, reconfigured, and reprogrammed to suit the needs of every customer with mobile machines, vehicles, and equipment, allowing them to quickly start collecting critical data and real-time intelligence off of these machines and assets and start solving real problems for their customers.”
