Jul 11, 2003 — by LinuxDevices Staff — from the LinuxDevices Archive — views

Owasys has developed a pair of Linux-based wireless terminals for remote management applications in automotive and industrial environments. The automotive model can be used for fleet management, automatic vehicle location, emergency and theft monitoring, in-car telephony, onboard telematics, and vehicle positioning services. The industrial model allows wireless-enabling a broad range of industrial equipment, such as providing remote access to vending machine stock levels. Both units provide built-in GSM/GPRS communications with IP capabilities, enabling efficient information transmission over the cellular wireless network, and the automotive model also includes a built-in GPS receiver.
