We have sold commercial vehicle tracking systems to companies in many different industries including emergency services, couriers and haulage. Although their day to day activities are very different, they can all benefit from our commercial vehicle tracking systems. Our commercial vehicle tracking systems are much more than satellite navigation, they are among the most detailed commercial vehicle trackers in the UK, providing information on drivers' hours, route diversions, unauthorised use of vehicles and detailed vehicle functions. Commercial vehicle tracking can save your company hours every week and greatly increase productivity.

Adam Laurie lived a few Novembers as a dog earlier this year. By duplicating the RFID tags used to identify pets in the United Kingdom and sewing it into his watch strap, Laurie, an independent security researcher, re-created his dog's ID as a hacking exercise. However, this kind of virtual animal cloning could become a serious issue as industrialized countries roll out RFID-based systems to keep track of their livestock.Japan and the United Kingdom have led the way, developing so-called source and age-verified tracking systems that could help contain the damage caused by outbreaks of mad cow disease, scrapie, or avian flu. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has also been testing the use of RFID chips as part of a National Animal Identification System.These systems are changing the way we purchase meat, notes Sue Brown, a product manager with Destron Fearing, a maker of RFID tracking chips. In Japan, consumers can scan a package of beef and have a photo of the people who raised the cow, along with details on how it entered the country, sent to their mobile phones. According to Brown, Destron Fearing has taken steps to prevent its tags from being cloned, including placing the chip in a tamperproof polyurethane casing. "This is an unalterable means of identification," she says.But not everyone sees the technology as foolproof. Laurie points out that the RFID tags communicate without encryption, so some of them can be cloned or even reprogrammed. "If you create another tag that has the same ID, you can effectively clone the animal." Or at least its identity.Still, why would someone want to do this? A farmer might want to swap out the identity of a sick animal in his stock to save an entire herd from being destroyed. That's why some companies are starting to match DNA samples with existing ID systems in order to offer a greater level of assurance.The United States has been lucky so far. There hasn't been an outbreak of mad cow disease like the one that crippled the U.K. beef industry. But that might all change very quickly, says Brown. "We are probably one disaster away from having that sort of thing occur in the U.S."

The European Commission launched an in-depth investigation Wednesday into Dutch satellite navigation device maker TomTom's plans to take over Dutch digital mapmaker Tele Atlas, expressing "serious doubts" about the deal's impact on competition in the booming satellite navigation market.While many companies make portable navigation devices, Tele Atlas is one of only two makers of digital maps that offer complete coverage of Europe. The other is the U.S. firm, Navteq. Because there are only two such companies, "the proposed acquisition raises vertical competition concerns," the Commission said in a statement.The probe will examine whether the deal would push up the price of digital maps for rival portable navigation device makers or limit their access to these maps, the Commission said. It set an April 17 deadline for the probe to end.TomTom and Tele Atlas said in a joint statement they expect to have a clearer idea about whether the deal can go through by early next year. TomTom extended its offer for Tele Atlas shares until March 31, assuming it would know the outcome of the probe by then.The market for satellite navigation devices, which has emerged over the past five years, is undergoing rapid consolidation.One of TomTom's biggest rivals, U.S.-based Garmin, also tried to acquire Tele Atlas but withdrew its offer after being outbid by TomTom last month. Also last month, Finnish mobile phone operator Nokia announced plans to buy Navteq.Garmin, meanwhile, has struck a deal with Navteq, giving the device maker access to Navteq's maps until 2015.
