Industry: Email Alert RSS FeedRaco Industries Selects PowerLOC's Destinator Navigation Device to Supply Fleet Operators - Raco Industrial Corp. contracts PowerLOC Technologies Inc - Brief Article
Wireless Internet, August, 2001
Paradigm Advanced Technologies, a provider of GPS-based location and asset tracking, announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, PowerLOC Technologies, has received an initial six-figure order from Raco Industries for its Destinator GPS-based navigation system.
Raco placed their order based on overwhelming response from dealers, VARs, and customers who recognize the Destinator as a compelling mobile alternative to more costly, less versatile invehicle navigation systems.
Users enter an address into the Destinator and the device issues multi-lingual voice directions for every stage of the route. Because the device is currently compatible with only the Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC, Raco is bundling the Destinator with the iPAQ to provide a unique end-to-end solution that's unsurpassed in the industry.
