Sky-Trax Presents “The revolutionary impact of inch-accurate Optical RTLS” at MATTECH 2008
President and COO Larry Mahan to speak at MATTECH in Miami, FL on Wednesday, August 20, 2008 and Thursday, August 21, 2008
New Castle, Delaware, August 13, 2008 -- Join Sky-Trax President and COO Larry Mahan for an educational session on The revolutionary impact of inch-accurate Optical RTLS at MATTECH 2008, the International Material Handling, Manufacturing & Packaging Technology, Logistics and Supply Chain Expo in Miami, FL USA. An English version of the seminar will take place on Wednesday, August 20, 2008, while the same information will be presented in Spanish on Thursday, August 21, 2008. Both seminars will take place from 9:00 to 10:00 am in Seminar Room C-124 of the Miami Beach Convention Center on their respective days.
Mr. Mahan will discuss how Sky-Trax’s inch-accurate indoor positioning technology is bringing breakthrough improvements in materials handling visibility, productivity, safety, and 100% accurate inventory tracking data with Optical RTLS. Optical RTLS – real time location systems - provides the ability to do inch-accurate tracking of assets in real time. Attendees will learn about Sky-Trax’s future vision and description of driverless, autonomous free-roaming industrial vehicles. Expected benefits for dramatically safer and more productive operations will be described and quantified.
“This unprecedented ability for accurate tracking of assets and inventory indoors provides the foundation for all kinds of new high-value applications that use location awareness to significantly improve and optimize driver productivity and safety as well as improve inventory accuracy,” says Mr. Mahan.
The key building block developed by Sky-Trax is its revolutionary patent-pending Indoor Positioning Sensor (IPS) Technology. IPS takes industrial digital camera technology and combines it with modern image processing software. The result is the industry’s first optical real time location system, or optical RTLS - a indoor vehicle tracking system that tracks precisely where each vehicle is just by looking up into the ceiling and analyzing what it sees there.
While IPS might be compared to a Global Positioning System or GPS, the secret to IPS accuracy and indoor reliability is that it uses optical, rather than radio wave or RFID technology for tracking.
The two-day expo takes place at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Its audience includes buyers from Manufacturing, IT, Assembly, Distribution, Warehousing and Supply Chain from over 50 Countries including United States, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Aruba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Asia, Middle East, Europe, Africa.
