FLiteTraX MINI GPS 2G/4G/5G & BLE Tag 5.1-6.3g

FLiteTraX MINI GPS 2G/4G/5G & BLE Tag 5.1-6.3g

FLiteTraX MINI is small Solar powered GPS tag that uses the 5G cell phone network and long range Bluetooth (INTELINK) to transmit data directly to a mobile phone or to a Bluetooth gateway. Data is uploaded to the cloud server and is accessible to the user through a web page link.

 

Data upload MINI 2G, 4G or 5G

MINI 2G supports the GSM850, EGSM900, DCS1800 and PCS1900.  Data uplink rate 85.6 Kbps/85.6 Kbps

EXTRA FUNCTIONS brought by INTELINK

INTELINK® technology enables remote connection to your MINI (Argos) devices to perform various operations and realize many amazing functions.

To establish such connection, you only need an ordinary smart phone or/and a Debut series gateway device.

*Debut gateways could be a HUB, TAG or QUEST. The connection distance is 30~200m depending on environment. 

Tracker Recovery

With ECOTOPIA App, a device and a mobile phone will automatically function as a beaconsystem. The mobile phone will ring if the device is detected nearby. The closer they are, thelouder the ringing sound will be. This provides a convenient way to find lost devices.

Firmware Upgrade & Setting Modification

You can easily upgrade the firmware or change data collection settings and Argostransmission schedules for a device nearby using Ecotopia App.

Remote Data Downloading

MINI (Argos) is capable of collecting much more data than the Argos transmission throughput limitation.

If the bird wearing MINI (Argos) device flies to somewhere near a Debut gateway*, the data stored in the device memory can be automatically downloaded and sent to the cloud server via network connection of the HUB. Then, the researcher can see the data in theiraccounts.

Raw Acceleration Data Collecting

Raw x/y/x acceleration data could be very useful for behavioral research, especially whenthe data can be combined with timestamps, GPS, environmental data, and the bird’sactivity rhythm. However, the raw data can seldom be obtained due to its large size.

With INTELINK, you can not only download the raw data from memory, but also obtain real-time raw acceleration data by connecting a mobile phone to a MINI device.

In-situ Modeling

During the process of obtaining real-time raw data described as above, you can also markthe data with behavior tags. Ecotopia App provides comprehensive tools for In-situmodeling, which includes real-time x/y/z acceleration visualization and data downloading,video shooting, and behavior tagging. All these data will be combined under thetimestamps and saved for later verification and analysis.

With the help of Druid’s AniAct® behavior algorithm platform, you will be able to generateacceleration-based behavior algorithm for different species.

Furthermore, such algorithm can be loaded into the tracker and be conducted on board.Then, the tracker will be able to send back continuous computed result of behavior tagsinstead of discontinuous raw data. This will expand the data dimensions and bringbreakthrough on bird research and ecology conservation.
