Contigo Launches Inexpensive Indoor-Locatable Tracking Beacon

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Contigo, the leading provider of turn-key GPS solutions for asset tracking, fleet management and personal safety, is pleased to announce the launch of the Contigo 8100. This device is an inexpensive, indoor-locatable beacon for covert asset tracking, theft recovery and personal security.

The Contigo 8100 utilizes the world's most powerful GPS technology -- gpsOne(TM) from Qualcomm. This technology allows the beacon to be located in environments where standalone GPS fails, such as indoors. The device also provides a battery life of up to 10 days on a single charge.

Using the Contigo platform, subscribers have the ability to proactively locate or track the 8100, review scheduled position reports online, and receive alerts (via email or cell phone) for multiple monitored zones. Integrated central station incident handling and location-aware PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point) data work together to immediately dispatch local authorities in the event of a theft. This revolutionary combination of technologies makes the Contigo 8100 a complete end-to-end solution for theft notification, tracking and recovery.

"Never before has there been such a powerful, small and inexpensive GPS tracking beacon," commented Rob Goehring, Vice President of Product Management and Marketing for Contigo. The versatility of this product will open up new markets in asset tracking, covert investigations and personal security for both commercial businesses as well as family safety applications. This product is a welcome addition to Contigo's industry leading suite of GPS beacons."

The Contigo 8100 will be on display at ISC East in New York from September 11 through 12 at booth 2035, and at ASIS International in Las Vegas from September 24 through 26 at booth 777.
