TELEMATICS

Your Partner in Building State-of-the-Art Components for Technology of the Future

Transportation efficiency helps to optimize transport time and reduce operational costs. Telematics is one effective way to monitor vehicles of all types using GPS technology and on-board diagnostics (OBD). Through this technology, your clients can follow the movement of their vehicles on a computerized map or open platform. This fleet management and tracking system records not only the route of the driver but also the nuances of their driving behavior including their speed, location, driving patterns and more. These data points allow companies to make more strategic decisions about their fleet and transport operations.

Avnan can partner with you to build a state-of-the-art telematics solution so you can offer the most competitive product in the market.

Avnan’s telematics solution integrates with:

  • OBD-11 (On-board Diagnostics)
    GPS (Global Positioning Systems)
  • GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications)
  • Wifi / Bluetooth
  • Voice recognition
  • Speakers
  • CAN bus (Controller Area Network)
  • RS232 Communication port
  • USB port

To protect electronics components and improve reliability, Avnan uses Low Pressure Overmoulding or Electronics Overmoulding to Printed Circuit Board Assembly and Connectors. Our process is eco-friendly, cycle time is short and protects the fine or fragile circuitry from damage.
