SKYSPY, LLC has formed strategic development and integration alliances with SmartSynch, Inc., and Tech Star Design and Mfg. to provide the latest technology to combat auto theft and provide consumers with increased safety, security, and convenience.
The SKYSPY device has significant instant capabilities, as well as potential applications that will revolutionize law enforcement agencies, insurance agencies, other businesses, and individual consumers. In the future, the technology could even be used for home security, inventory control, medical monitoring and human and/or property location tracking.
With two-way data telemetry technology and SPI proprietary protocol, hardware, and firmware, SKYSPY has developed a consumer-friendly device with four products designed into one.
Our company believes that due to the patent pending proprietary protocol, our message processing is one of the fastest to date. It is also the most economical, as it eliminates the need for a currently over-crowded cellular network and intermediary personnel. It gives a law enforcement agency or a vehicle owner complete, immediate control via any phone or Internet access.
The competitive advantages of SKYSPY are apparent in the five-layer anti-theft device that includes:
· visible and audible deterrent
· vehicle immobilizer
· GPS tracking
· automatic customer notification
Other safety and convenience features include:
· remote arm and disarm
· remote car find command
· remote door lock control
· automatic battery back-up
· multi-stage shock sensor
· multi-zone protection
· anti-scan security
· remote engine starter
· remote trunk release
· (Future applications will include digital photo transmissions.)
For law enforcement purposes, this technology can impact the liability of high-speed pursuits, locate lost or missing persons, increase officer safety on traffic stops, and enhance and expand surveillance techniques. Future applications would allow for immediate identification and evaluation of vehicle impact crashes prior to the arrival of emergency personnel.
The device has recently been tested through a cooperative effort with Progressive Insurance and police agencies in the state of Ohio. In just a few months, the Cleveland City Police Department has made multiple arrests, while using only one SKYSPY equipped bait car, with 100% vehicle recovery. The department has now added two more units (12/04/02). In addition, the Ohio State Highway Patrol has installed three units (12/05/02). Also, units purchased by Progressive Insurance are currently being installed in Toledo, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Lorain County, Ohio, for use in additional bait cars. Furthermore, upon request from law enforcement officials, SKYSPY has delivered a working prototype of a “slap-on” portable unit for use as a tracking-only device.
We feel confident that our company’s product is unsurpassed and deserving of wider recognition in the field. We have recently submitted nominations in two categories for the Telematics Awards 2003 in our efforts to widen our horizons.
The immediate goal of SKYSPY is to partner with a larger company, market the product worldwide, and design and develop complementary technologies. SKYSPY is a new venture with an outstanding, innovative product, unique vision and enthusiasm, and great potential for future growth and development as a leader in the telematics industry. Businesses, agencies, and individuals will all find that SKYSPY can meet their needs.
