Jasper Wireless' machine-to-machine (M2M) service platform allows Coyote Systems to remotely monitor individual devices in all the countries where it operates, while using one Global SIM to make each user a member of its growing international community.

Mini-Coyote alerts users one mile in advance of the presence of mobile speed cameras, informing them of the remaining distance between the vehicle and the mobile speed camera.

By connecting its devices with Jasper Wireless, state-of-the-art Coyote Systems is not only able to push information to its users in real-time, but also to use alerts from them to update its database, which is a substantial advantage over existing solutions that request regular manual downloads using a local PC connection.

"The Jasper Wireless M2M service platform brings us the automation we need. It enables us to manage all SIMs without any human intervention - not only do our operational costs decrease, but this automated process is also more reliable, faster and scalable," said Jean-Marc Van Laethem, CTO of Coyote Systems.

The mini-Coyote alert system was launched in the UK at the beginning of November and is available through internet distributors and high-street retailers. In France, where the alert system was launched in February, the Coyote community numbers more than 40,000 users.

The device is also available today in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and will be launched in Benelux later in the year, with Spain, Italy and Portugal launching in the first quarter of 2009.

"The Jasper Wireless Global SIM reduces operational complexity: we can insert it into the device during production and ship to all markets where we distribute, without having to allocate stock by country at the production stage - from our perspective that saves money and headaches. Also, we can download and test the device's configuration in our working facilities in France for free, as we only start paying for the connectivity once the device has been activated by the end customer in the local country," Van Laethem continued.

"On the customer side, the device works out-of-the-box, the first time it is powered on. That brings an unprecedented customer experience."

As soon as the user turns the mini-Coyote on, it receives the latest speed camera location update. The mini-Coyote then remains connected during the whole trip, so alerts can be received at any time.

The Coyote database is based on information delivered by the user community as well as partners. Every Coyote user has the opportunity to communicate the position of fixed or mobile speed cameras by simply pressing a button on the device, sharing the location based information with the growing user community.

Unlike detectors, GPS-based alert systems are supported by the government as a road safety aid - and are therefore 100% legal.

"While speed camera detectors, much like personal navigation devices, are designed to be used out-and-about, for too long they have remained tethered to a PC for updates, disconnecting them from the full value they could deliver. By embedding wireless connectivity, Coyote has launched an innovative and market-changing product and it is a great pleasure to help them expand its user community across the UK and Europe through our M2M platform and Global SIM," said Cindy Patterson, executive vice president - worldwide sales & marketing at Jasper Wireless.
