December, 2008 - Track Star is
proud to be the supplier of GPS vehicle location
products used in Gloucester Township, NJ school
buses, used to enhance the safety and security
of students and bus drivers. The Track
Star AVLS system, already installed in the
Gloucester Township Police Department vehicles,
has been added to the school bus fleet as a
means of providing automated location
information for both routine and emergency
circumstances. The Track Star AVLS
software in the police department vehicles is
configured to receive location information and
alerts from the buses so that swift response to
emergencies can be provided. School
officials derive benefit from both the routine
tracking information as well as the emergency
communications events. This deployment was
announced in a press conference held by Police
Chief Ed Smith and was featured on CBS3 TV in
Philadelphia. Replay of that coverage is
available
here.
October, 2008 - In response to
requests from our Law Enforcement customer base,
Track Star has added a COVERT VEHICLE TRACKING
device to the range of devices supported within
the application. Now, agencies can
covertly attach a device to the underside of a
vehicle and track the movements of that vehicle
within the Track Star AVLS system. The
device attaches using high strength magnets
integral to the unit. Using built in
rechargeable batteries and internal antennas,
installation is as simple as placing the device
on a metallic portion of the target vehicles
undercarriage. Small size and a dark color
enclosure make for a low observability
installation. Of equal importance is the
fact that the unique architecture of the Track
Star AVLS system allows agencies to have
documentable custody and control over the
database containing the records of suspect
vehicle movement making use of such data in an
evidentiary capacity significantly easier.
September, 2008 - Track Star

networks as the means of getting GPS data from
vehicles back to the tracking software
application.
