Optimizing PreView®’s Most Rugged Solution, PreView Xtreme®, with the PreView Sentry® Award-Winning Blind Spot Radar Platform, PRECO Introduces Sentry®X

Leave a comment


SentryX

“PRECO has always worked to provide the most reliable collision mitigation systems. Sentry X is the latest step in supporting our customers with purpose-built blind spot solutions for the heavy-duty industries.”


BOISE, Idaho (PRWEB)

Collision mitigation technology leader PRECO Electronics® has announced the release of PreView Sentry®X, an intelligent radar solution designed to improve situational awareness for operators of large haul trucks and other heavy mobile equipment. Combining the narrow field of view from PreView Xtreme® with the award-winning flexibility of PreView Sentry®, Sentry X continues the rugged reliability PRECO customers have come to expect while providing an upgrade path for existing Xtreme users.

Using the Sentry platform, PRECO created Sentry X with a narrower field of view designed to support all the same installation points as the original Xtreme while including Sentry’s 30-meter range capabilities and the ability to adjust the detection zone in both range and width, making it an adept blind spot monitoring sensor.

“PreView Xtreme has played a critical role in the success of countless applications, and has remained a best-seller since its release in 2002,” said Tom Loutzenheiser, PRECO’s Vice President of Business Development. “PRECO has always worked to provide the most reliable collision mitigation systems. Sentry X is the latest step in supporting our customers with purpose-built blind spot solutions for the heavy-duty industries.”

Improving on the original 5.8 GHz Xtreme, Sentry X operates in the globally approved 200 MHz section of the 24 GHz RF band to support North America, Europe, India, and Japan along with the rest-of-the-world markets. Which extends the range capabilities to 30-meters.

As proximity detection adoption within heavy-duty industries spreads across the globe, warning systems have advanced, propelling the industry in the direction of safer, more intelligent technologies. Until today, installations which required sensors with narrow fields of view could not take advantage of the leading sensor’s flexibility and range capabilities. Now, with Sentry X, they can.

Over the years, PRECO has continued to maintain its leadership position in object detection systems for heavy-duty mobile equipment through technology innovation and constant communication with the market to understand its needs. The Sentry X solution provides proof of PRECO’s insight into the market’s needs once again.

About PRECO Electronics®

As the global leader in collision mitigation technology, PRECO has offered blind spot monitoring and collision avoidance systems for heavy and medium-duty mobile equipment for more than 20 years. With active audible and visual alerts, PRECO’s radar-based solutions mitigate collisions and minimize the occurrence of incident-related property damage, injuries, and fatalities by protecting operators’ blind spots. With a history of innovation, PRECO’s award-winning safety systems are built for unparalleled performance in all environments, engineered to integrate with all future safety technologies.

New J.W. Speaker Solar LED Flasher Lights for Marking Obstructions and Hazards

We created our first sustainable, rugged and powerful solar flasher lights specifically for optimal visibility under the most adverse conditions, including storms, dust and vibrations, so crews and motorists can identify potential hazards and stay out of harm’s way.


GERMANTOWN, Wis. (PRWEB)

J.W. Speaker Corporation announced the launch of high-powered, low-profile solar LED flasher lights to help crews, motorists and passersby identify dangerous obstructions in a wide range of settings. The new lights are fully sustainable and offer visibility for up to one mile (1.6km) in any location where safety is a top priority, but power is unavailable.

“Potential hazards are a constant threat, especially on job sites and other places where a lack of power means less warning and more danger,” said Gary Durian, Director of Engineering at J.W. Speaker. “We created our first energy sustainable, rugged and powerful solar flasher lights specifically for optimal visibility under the most adverse conditions, including storms, dust and vibrations, so crews and motorists can identify potential hazards and stay out of harm’s way.”

The self-sustaining solar LEDs charge fully in as few as 6 hours and can run for up to 120 hours before a recharge is needed. Compared to other market lights that emit parallel beams, the unique design of J.W. Speaker solar maker lights projects perpendicular to the lamp for easier identification from farther distances.

The impact-modified acrylic housing withstands UV light degradation and is nearly indestructible, even when used on rugged job sites in the harshest environments. Each light assembly is IP67 and IP69K rated and can withstand powerful high-pressure washers. In addition, LEDs are available in amber and red to accommodate diverse applications.

“These lights can be mounted securely on any surface without drilling, so they can be placed anywhere,” said Durian. “We use the powerful Click Bond™ adhesive-bonded mount, which makes the lights ideal when you need to mark obstructions or large objects but don’t want to compromise structural integrity.”

Affix the solar maker lights to any object in a wide range of environments, including:

  • Wagons and heavy machinery in rail yards

  • Water pumps, rock crushers and other objects on mining sites

  • Equipment and temporary trailers on constructions sites

  • Road signage, traffic signals and railroad crossings where power sources are limited

  • Long-haul trucks at rest stops or truck yards

  • Boat piers and waterways

  • Material handling, cleaning and agriculture equipment

Voice-first startup telbee scores #1 product of the day on Product Hunt, proving that demand for voice technology in business is truly exploding

Leave a comment


Being awarded number 1 product of the day on Product Hunt is a real honour, and we’re proud to have taken a big step towards realising our mission to make the internet feel more human.


LONDON (PRWEB)

Yesterday, voice-first SaaS startup telbee launched their first product, Vox: the voice messaging platform for business. Within the first couple of hours of their product being listed, Vox had been named number 1 ‘product of the day’, a highly sought-after position.

Vox is currently listed on Product Hunt as one of the top products of the day, and telbee have high hopes that Vox will be awarded another prestigious top spot as Product Hunt’s ‘product of the week’.

Vox was created for businesses, communities, websites and podcasters looking for a communication and support method that would not only be faster and easier, but which would also allow them to engage their customers and fans more personally, and be more accessible to people who find it difficult or impossible to type.

The growing startup is excited about the reception of their voice-first platform, which they built to empower organisations of all shapes and sizes to build genuine, long-lasting relationships with their customers by listening to and speaking with each other person to person.

Last month, during their closed beta, telbee received overwhelmingly positive feedback from Vox’s testers, with participants including entrepreneurs, teachers, marketing agencies and community leaders commenting that the platform was incredibly easy to install, easy to use and incredibly well received by their audience.

After the enormous success of their closed beta and the very positive reception on Product Hunt this morning, telbee are excited to spread the word about Vox and invite businesses and brands across the world to join the conversation.

To find out more about telbee and their mission to revolutionise the internet with voice, head to telbee.io or send them a voice message today (telbee.io/contact).

Quote from telbee’s Founder:

“At telbee, we feel extremely excited and also humbled by the way people have responded to our voice-first messaging platform. Vox’s huge success at this early stage has confirmed what we’ve always believed – that businesses want to listen just as much as consumers want to be heard.

“Being awarded number 1 product of the day on Product Hunt is a real honour, and we’re proud to have taken a big step towards realising our mission to make the internet feel more human.

“We launched Vox to empower organisations to use their most valuable communication tool – voice – to engage with and understand their customers like never before.

“Moving forward, we want businesses to be able to enhance their relationships with their customers, boost engagement and improve accessibility by combining the convenience of instant messaging with the personal touch of a phone call – because, fundamentally, we believe that when people talk, good things happen.”

Nico Phair, CEO and Founder of telbee

About telbee:

Founded in 2018 by Nico Phair, telbee is a UK-based voice tech SaaS startup that’s revolutionising the way brands communicate with their audiences. With the launch of their first product Vox, telbee’s aim is to provide brands with all the tools they need to listen to their customers and engage them in real, human conversation.

telbee’s goal is to build a world where customer relationships are human relationships; where technology enhances conversations, not limits them; and where it is as easy to listen as it is to talk.

SWAGTRON® Turns From Streets To Seas With New TSA-Compliant LF1 Electric Underwater Scooter

Leave a comment


Ride like a pro with a personal underwater scooter from Swagtron.

“Not only is the LF1 an underwater scooter, but it’s also a portable engine, that you can attach to any watercraft,” says Chief Marketing Officer, Jason Wakefield. “Affix it to a paddleboat. Make your own electric kickboard. Or use it as a kayak propeller.”


SOUTH BEND, Ind. (PRWEB)

The LF1 by Swagtron holds the distinct honor of being one of the only electric underwater scooters with a TSA-compliant battery that’s approved to be taken on board a plane with you. For divers who are flying to their destination, traveling is as simple as disassembling the LF1 and stowing it in a backpack or carry on. Lightweight, the LF1 weighs just 5.07 pounds.

The LF1 is waterproof up to 131 feet (40 meters), letting divers of all experience levels dive deeper into bodies of fresh or saltwater, from swimming pools to oceans. The LF1 comes with a single-jet handgrip, wrist strap, and wireless remote control that can pair to and control up to 6 motor units simultaneously.

The LF1 was developed with a clear strategy: durability, usability, and flexibility. Its modular design lets divers modify and customize the electric water scooter based on your needs using a number of accessories (sold separately). Accessories include a dual jet rail kit, scuba mount kit, or multi-purpose mount kit.

Other undersea scooters are made primarily from plastic. But the LF1 electric diving scooter using an ultra-durable aircraft-grade aluminum shell that delivers the ruggedness and longevity other plastic water scooters simply cannot match. The front cap is composed of reinforced ABS materials, specifically designed to absorb direct impacts from drops. The high-precision, water-cooled motor with an aluminum heatsink is optimized for longevity, durability, and reliability in saltwater settings, thanks to the water-cooled motor with an aluminum heatsink. The propeller covers are made with fiberglass-reinforced vinyl. In the case of emergency, the rear propeller guard can be easily removed with tools (even underwater) to remove any obstructions that might get caught during exploration.

The LF1 uses our LiFePO4 battery technology with an enhanced safety profile. This battery technology is more efficient than traditional rechargeable batteries, able to be fully charged in two hours. It’s also fully removable, letting divers swap out the flat battery with a fresh, second battery (sold separately) to continue the underwater adventure. (The wireless remote control can also be fully charged in 90 minutes or less.)

FEATURES + SPECS

  • Powerful three-speed motor delivering up to 15.4 pounds of thrust

  • Removable TSA-compliant LiFePO4 battery w/ 2-hour charge time

  • Wireless remote that can pair with/control up to six motor units

  • Modular design for upgrades and additional accessories

  • Up to 90-minute runtime (30 minutes on max. speed)

  • Ultra-durable Aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum shell

  • Lightweight (5.07 lb.) and compact design

  • Waterproof up to 40 meters (131 feet)

  • Impact-resistant ABS nose cover

  • Max. speeds up to 3.35 m.p.h.

  • Negative buoyancy of 1.1 kg

  • Integrated camera mount

  • Auto power conserve

  • One-year warranty

The LF1 is on sale for $599.99 ($666.65 MSRP) respectively and is available now through Swagtron.com, Amazon.com, and select retailers.
