EMU4G - GPS tracking and communication solution via 4G / LTE
Origin
The fact that this GPS localisation and communication solution bears the name of the Australian large bird Emu is due to the combination of the two Anglo-Saxon words Emergency and Unit. Originally conceived as a simple alarm unit, the EMU4G can now be used as a locating device, remote-controlled actuator/sensor, data and voice communication unit or even as an emergency signalling device thanks to its versatility. The EMU4G has been developed on the basis of the AnyRover Mini V2. This ensures seamless integration with other devices in the product family.
Device features
The standard version of the EMU4G has three digital inputs and one output. It uses GPS to determine its position and can transmit this to a control centre via 4G (LTE) or SMS. The EMU4G also has 3G /2G fallback functionality in areas that do not have 4G (LTE) coverage, which ensures that the tracker functions continuously.
The high-sensitivity GPS receiver can also be optionally integrated into the tracker with dead reckoning. The use of dead reckoning enables uninterrupted navigation and localisation even in places where there is no GPS signal, e.g. in tunnels, multi-storey car parks or under buildings, thanks to advanced sensor technology.
The four status LEDs on the front of the tracker keep the user informed about the operating status of the device at all times. A buzzer connected to the output can be used to emit warning or status tones, for example.
A silent telephone call to a previously defined telephone number is also possible. If voice communication is required, you are welcome to contact us.
Hardware / Firmware
The EMU4G is based on a 32-bit single core processor platform, which can be clocked at up to 454 MHz. The firmware of the tracker is based on that of the higher-level vehicle routers in our portfolio. Seamless integration is therefore possible without any problems. The commands and functions controlled by EMU4G are open. Nothing stands in the way of a connection to a tracking and fleet management system and this can be easily realised.
FAKRA connectors are available for the antenna connections. Other antenna plug connections (e.g. SMA/FME/RP-SMA) can be realised on request.
