AeroAstro Launches IVMS Voice Service

 Ashburn VA (SPX) May 22, 2006
 AeroAstro, a microsatellite and communications technology pioneer, has announced the launch of its new voice alert service, Integrated Voice Messaging Service or IVMS which enables users of AeroAstro's Sensor Enabled Notification System (SENS) to manage remote sensing alert messages from any phone.

IVMS utilizes synthesized voice technology to provide both incoming and outgoing alert calls from AeroAstro's SENS Data Portal. IVMS enables users operating in the field to receive a voice alert of alarm activation, acknowledge the alert and discontinue the alert transmission. IVMS provides the user the ability to exert greater control over the remote unit from their telephone.

SENS, the Sensor Enabled Notification System designed and built by AeroAstro, sends simplex (one-way) signals over a satellite network, allowing customers to locate remote assets, monitor SENS-enabled remote sensors, track status changes, and respond to equipment problems quickly. The SENS Internet- based Data Portal is the single point of access where users retrieve account information and messages via the web, email, voice, ftp, pager or fax.

  • Alert notification via user defined phone lists,
  • Outgoing notification calls are sent in looping rounds to each member of the phone list until a user either cancels or acknowledges the message,
  • The voice alert message is determined by the user i.e., "Compressor #3 is down,"
  • Alert notification reports.

    "AeroAstro is pleased to offer this extended, timely and convenient alert notification to our customers' field operators. Combined with our new Data Portal interface and mapping options, IVMS will greatly improve the value and usefulness of SENS for machine to machine monitoring of remote assets," said AeroAstro CEO, Dr. Rick Fleeter.

    AeroAstro, based in Northern Virginia, is a leading developer of microsatellite systems and components. AeroAstro has partnered with Globalstar, a satellite communication pioneer, to supply low cost, satellite- based data communication products and services to Value Added Resellers providing applications tailored for the asset tracking and remote monitoring industries.
