Micro Technologies has unveiled Micro BTS (Buddy Tracking System), a location-based product, to deliver personalized services to the present generation of mobile telephony users who are constantly on the move. Micro BTS offers a service that enables cell phone subscribers to share their real-time location status and messages, with their friends from a mobile phone. Using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, the application automatically updates the location of a user's "buddies" and displays the information directly on a map on the phone. Alerts can also be sent to notify subscribers when a friend is near. Micro BTS enables the user to stay in touch when they travel to another region or country. Using this system, one can share one's position with his/her friends and family, creates and joins groups, records and reviews his/her track history. Dr. Sekhar, Chairman and Managing Director, Micro Technologies says, "For nearly a decade, technology visionaries have talked of a day when cell phones could be utilized as a map for directions to locate loved ones. We at Micro Technologies took this thought further and are proud to introduce the Micro Buddy Tracking System which integrates three significant innovations of technology – Internet, GPS and wireless data. We know that this product has a wide utility and look forward to its success." |
