Hijacking cars, attackers often have good equipment to cope with the most modern alarm system. A child or an elderly person may leave in an unknown direction, and the company's employees are not always honest and disciplined.
You can cope with any of these problems if you buy a GPS tracker - a modern tracking device that will transmit coordinates to you in real time. Additional functionality will allow you to hear what is happening in the place where a car or a person with a beacon is located. The use of GPS tracker for monitoring commercial vehicles and cargo simplifies the control of fuel consumption, routing drivers, freight forwarders, sales, insurance agents.

The electronic catalog contains a detailed description of each model, including features, technical characteristics and advantages.
What is a GPS beacon
A small beacon is an electronic device that is capable of determining the geolocation of a controlled object with great accuracy, memorizing the route and transmitting information to the owner via SMS or through a special application. To get information, it is enough to send a command request from the phone. In the reply SMS you will receive a link to the map or the coordinates directly.
GPS beacons equipped with an alarm button allow a person to report an unusual situation and ask for help. Often the device saves a person's life when he can no longer make a phone call.
The simplest beacon works in "sleep" mode, communicating at programmed intervals, which saves battery power, stretching it to several years of uninterrupted use. An additional advantage of the tracker is its invisibility for electronic scanners. The chances of detecting and disabling a sleeping beacon are reduced to zero.
According to the type of nutrition , there are:- Autonomous GPS trackers. They are powered by a battery or batteries.
- Combined. Battery-powered models with the ability to connect to the vehicle's on-board system. They are used where a secret installation is not required – for monitoring the movements of corporate trucks and passenger cars.
The beacon's GPS antenna uses any available communication range - GSM, GPRS, the Russian GLONASS satellite system and international GPS. Some models are able to locate an object in places where there is no satellite signal using inertial navigation. The accuracy of determining the coordinates reaches several meters.
Features of human tracking
GPS beacon for location monitoring does not exceed the dimensions of a bank card in size. It is easy to carry in a clothing pocket, in a bag or backpack. Having a constant connection with a child or an elderly relative, you will be confident in his well-being, calm for his health.
Cases when an elderly person suddenly becomes ill on the street are not uncommon. No less often, escapes of children and the facts of a missing person are recorded. Additional insurance here will not only be justified – it will prevent possible risks.
Some models of GPS beacons allow you to set up a valid geofence, when exiting which the device will inform you that the object has left the permitted area. For example, if a child leaves the playground or a grandmother gets lost on the way to the store, then you can instantly find out about it or find it by electronic tag signals.
If necessary, the sensor can be hidden in the car of an employee working on the road, or openly oblige to carry it with you while on the work route. External control helps not only to establish discipline, but also prevents the use of a working car (and working time) for personal purposes.
GPS beacons for cars
Car GPS tracker StarLine M18, Pandora or StarLine M66 will not replace the anti-theft device, but will be a reliable beacon to find it in case of loss. Sealed, dust- and moisture-proof housing, compact dimensions, various mounting methods allow you to secretly install it anywhere in the cabin, under the hood, in the trunk and even hide it under the bumper.
Disabling the car alarm, neutralizing the GPS beacon with a radio signal blocker or finding it in someone else's car is not a quick matter. Doing this in a parking lot or in someone else's yard is dangerous, and it also takes time to hide the car. During this period, the car controller will inform the owner about unauthorized engine start, moving or changing the route, and final coordinates.
The full set of functionality depends on the model. For example, Pandora NAV-08 Pro, StarLine or Autophone SE-Beacon will not only give out the location, but also let you listen to what the attackers are talking about.
Additional features of the car GPS beacon:- Increased accuracy. The geolocation error is reduced if the device uses both satellite systems - GPS and GLONASS.
- Work without a subscription fee on a prepaid SIM card.
- A good car GPS can not only monitor the car, but also block the engine if not its owner got behind the wheel.
- Installing multiple SIM cards increases the chances of returning the car from where there is no Internet. Connecting to different mobile operators also extends the signal range up to 4g.
- The increased capacity (mAh) of the battery being charged is the operation of the beacon for several years in sleep mode without recharging. A plus is the connection to the on-board power supply system of the machine, which brings the service life up to 5-7 years.
- The Beacon 2XL carphone can remotely configure the work program or update the firmware via GPRS.
- Work at temperatures from -40 to +70 degrees.
Companies that use vehicles in their work, GPS sensors are necessary for business development. Detailed routing of each vehicle allows you to plan fuel consumption, pay adequate (and not excessive) compensation to employees with personal vehicles, optimize the working time of employees. Applications allow you to monitor an unlimited number of objects at the same time, and the built-in memory stores data for several years.
