Telematics comes from 'tele' meaning remote and 'matic' meaning measurement. Telemetry means the same thing, although many people incorrectly associate telematics with the automotive industry only. Although vehicle tracking and fleet management is a core application of our BOX technology, remote monitoring can be useful to virtually any industry.

BOX is a highly automated communications device by which measurements are taken and other data collected at static, remote or inaccessible points and transmitted to receiving equipment for monitoring, display and recording. This is called 'remote data capture'.
