"We continue to open up new business and sales channels for
BlackBerry Radar that were previously untapped and we are confident
that each will serve as growth engines for our business, fueled by
demand for asset-monitoring technologies that provide
transportation business owners with the most aggregate view of
their operations," said Christopher
Plaat, SVP and GM, BlackBerry Radar.
BlackBerry Radar is an innovative, easy-to-install, asset
monitoring solution that provides information such as location,
motion, mileage, temperature, humidity, door open/close status, and
cargo status on an intuitive on-line dashboard. It collects
significantly more data than conventional GPS-based track and trace
solutions and uses this information to build a 360-degree
visualization of a customer's assets. All data is transmitted and
stored securely on a cloud platform, which maintains the privacy of
user information at all times.
