Automotive Telematics

• Automakers, electronics manufacturers, and
  telecom providers are converting transportation
  platforms into communications platforms that
  connect to the rest of the datasphere.
• The average new car contains 30 or more
  microcomputers, all interconnected in a local
  area network, controlling functions like
• braking,
• engine timing, and
• pollution control

• Leo One modem uses onboard AM/FM antenna
• Leo One modem connects to vehicle standard Data
  Bus

11
Fleet Management - Monitoring and Tracking

• Commercial Trucks Heavy Equipment
• Emissions monitoring and reporting
• Remote monitoring of engine performance alerts
  of abnormal operating conditions enable repairs
  before failure
• Automatic recording of fuel consumption, speed,
  engine RPM, mileage, vehicle position, date and
  time, state and country-boundary crossings,
  odometer readings, route analysis, driver
  history, driver and expenses, pallet tracking,
  automated government-required logs
• Software-controlled safety recalls
• Maintenance scheduling
• Location tracking and navigation
• Fleet management and load matching
• Messaging between drivers, dispatch office
  and service centers.

12
Remote Environmental Monitoring

• Pollution Monitoring
• Air pollution monitoring via stationary sensors
• Easy relocation of sites
• Additional Environmental Capabilities
• Well heads and pumping stations which regulate
  the flow of oil, gas or water can be monitored
  remotely to determine operational status, check
  for leakage, schedule maintenance and repair and
  control flow rate
• Power meters can be read remotely from
  hard-to-read areas load management services can
  be deployed to control utilization during high
  pollution periods
• Monitoring of geologic information will improve
  earthquake, avalanche and volcanic eruption
  warnings
