Omnilink: Tracking the World of Connected Devices a Key Topic at CES
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Offering pre-built applications for tracking people and assets, as well as a development platform for customized location pinpointing solutions, Omnilink Systems (http://www.omnilink.com) today at CES commented, "Locating mobile phones, tablets and specialized connected devices is now a key feature that consumers expect when making their purchase decisions," said Aaron Charlesworth, VP of Marketing and Product. "Last year, we saw and experienced the potential of personal location tracking and the value it brings to consumers, such as helping ensure safety and security of seniors, children, and their valuables."
Aaron Charlesworth continued, "2010 proved to be an eventful year for Omnilink, achieving several milestones in the development of our location tracking solutions for both the consumer and the enterprise. We believe that 2011 has the potential to be a watershed year for the mass as awareness and availability of personal tracking among consumer electronic devices is escalating. We look forward to further providing our customers with the ability to maximize the combined power of mobility and location."
In 2010, Omnilink advanced the market in the following areas:
-- AmberWatch GPS: Omnilink launched, with the AmberWatch Foundation, a
mobile solution available to parents that need or want to know their
child's location any time of the day. A child is reported missing every
40 seconds and more than 260,000 children are abducted each year. Based
on Omnilink's award-winning FocalPoint(TM) platform and an array of
different tracking devices, AmberWatch GPS uses cellular networks and
GPS to track the location of children of all ages. From the AmberWatch
GPS site (http://www.AmberWatchGPS.com), parents can view their child's
location on a map, set up schedules when they want their child to be
located automatically, create "safety zones", and set up a range of
different text and email notifications.
-- Alzheimer's Association: 2010 saw the one-year anniversary of the
Alzheimer's Association Comfort Zone (http://www.alz.org/comfortzone) powered
by Omnilink launch. Comfort Zone was the first comprehensive location
management system designed specifically for Alzheimer's, giving people
with the disease more freedom and independence in their community while
providing their family with some peace of mind.
-- Sprint M2M Collaboration Center: Omnilink joined Sprint's M2M
Collaboration Center as an inaugural team partner. The M2M
Collaboration Center provides a venue where partners and enterprise
customers can work side by side to develop commercially viable offerings
based on M2M, or machine-to-machine technology.
-- CEO Named: Omnilink named Kelly Gay as its President and CEO in 2010.
Ms. Gay came to the company with unparalleled experience as an
outstanding operational leader, market mover and dynamic marketing and
sales executive.
