InterTrak, Televoke & Numerex Introduce Automotive Safety Product, LifeTrak; ``Security is More Important Than Ever Before''
LAS VEGAS--Jan. 9, 2003--InterTrak Tracking Services, L.L.C., (www.trackmenow.com) announces it will be showing its innovative "LifeTrak(TM)" Automatic Collision Notification (ACN) device at the 2003 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, from January 9-12, 2003, Booth 4856. LifeTrak represents the industries' first aftermarket ACN device specifically designed for post-production installation. InterTrak has partnered with Televoke and Numerex Corp. to deliver "LifeTrak" as a Telematics companion product providing unprecedented safety delivered by wireless technology in the event of a traffic accident. "Airbags are no longer enough," says Barnet Fagel, InterTrak's Vice President of Sales and Marketing. When asked about the real need, Fagel added, "Unlike other systems, LifeTrak is designed to work in spite of front-end collisions that can damage the vehicle's battery making it powerless to operate OEM emergency communications systems."How does it all work?
LifeTrak is a dual-axis impact sensor accessory that interconnects with either of InterTrak's vehicle location devices, AutoTrak(TM) or AEGIS(TM). LifeTrak detects front, rear and side collisions without connecting to any factory airbag systems or sensors. When a LifeTrak equipped vehicle experiences a traffic collision, LifeTrak triggers the InterTrak location device to automatically send an alert message over Numerex's Cellemetry(R) network to the Televoke backend platform supplying the accident's location, date and time. The driver may keep their family's medical information in their secure on-line InterTrak medical file for use by medical personnel.
