4. Location Technology Overview
For Satellite and CellLocate to be accurate,
they require at least 3 points of reference.
Reference Points can be:
Satellites (US Government GPS sponsored) or GLONASS (Russian satellites)
Cellular Towers (Sprint® and Verizon®)

5. Wi-Fi Accurate in urban and densely populated environments
Indoor positioning using Wi-Fi is more accurate
Due to the short-range nature of Wi-Fi signals, the uncertainty area of Wi-Fi- based location is smaller than many other location methods
More accurate solution because Wi-Fi will have more access points in a closer proximity than cell towers

6. CellLocate™ CellLocate estimates position based on cell towers
Three points of reference needed for an accurate location
Sprint® or Verizon®
Advantages
Able to obtain location fix under conditions in which standard GPS systems do not work well or at all (Inside buildings, urban canyons, moving cars and other conditions where the GPS signal is blocked or affected by multi-path fading)
Disadvantages - Only works with cellular coverage

10. Proximity Tamper Detection
Tamper Detections
Fiber Optic
Infrared light is beamed through the strap
Any variation of the amount of light collected will cause the LOC8 to report a tamper
