AnyDATA's APT-210 Tracking Device Measures Attempt at Mini-Bike World Record

IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 21 -- A world record for mini-bike distance travelled was recently attempted and measured by AnyDATA's tiny personal care and tracking device. Ryan Galbraith and Chris Stinson set off from Denver, Colorado and travelled 445.2 miles to Sturgis, South Dakota over 25 hours and 29 minutes of riding their mini-bikes. To apply for an official world record, the two required an accurate and tiny personal tracking device to record their route and time. After evaluating many alternatives, they decided their best solution was the APT-210 tracking device and AnyDATA's hosted tracking service, which provided extensive highway and rural coverage.

"We could not have completed our world record attempt without AnyDATA's tracking solution and our other sponsors," commented Ryan Galbraith. "AnyDATA provided a log file and breadcrumbs map that validated our record longest journey on mini-bikes. Since we were on mini-bikes, we had to extremely limit what we carried," he added. "The APT-210 is so small and light, I hardly noticed it was in my pocket."

AnyDATA offers the APT-210 device as well as a hosted tracking solution on an OEM basis to qualified resellers and wireless carriers. The AnyDATA tracking solution is ideal for companies who market other personal safety or monitoring services for senior citizens, children, vehicles, or any valuable asset.

The APT-210 won first place for product innovation at the 2009 CTIA Emerging Technology (E-Tech) awards. The LBS tracking solution provides personal freedom and safety for elderly adults, children, or pets who may tend to wander. The tiny device features an alert button triggered by the user that immediately notifies a monitoring service or the caretaker. It can even track indoors.

"We are pleased to support this world record for mini-bikes using our innovative tracking solution," said Dr. Soon B. Shin, CEO of AnyDATA. "By providing the technology to help Ryan and his team go for their world record, AnyDATA demonstrated we offer a simple, yet powerful tracking solution for motorcyclists, bikers, or anyone travelling from home."
