Rover X
The Rover X is an independently powered and self-contained beacon designed to track a variety of naval surface assets including buoys, ocean platforms and autonomous vehicles. House in a rugged marine-grade and UV-resistant enclosure, it provides reliable transmission of GPS coordinates via Iridium Short Burst Data (SBD).
The unit's Watch Circle feature provides users with automatic notifications if any units travel outside a preset designated area. It is compatible with Xeos Technologies' XeosOnline monitoring software, allowing users to receive incoming messages, send remote configuration commands, and track and monitor all assets from a single intuitive interface. Local setup can be easily performed via Bluetooth.
