Blue Sky Network, a provider of global positioning system (GPS) and other types of communications technology for managing transportation assets, has introduced the HawkEye 5300, a dual-mode tracking device utilizing both GSM and Iridium satellite capabilities. The product offers two-way, real-time communication, with the ability automatically to switch between Iridium and the quad-band GSM networks. The result, claimed Blue Sky, is lower monthly tracking costs for land fleet operators, who get 100-percent global visibility of their assets. The HawkEye 5300 provides instant notification of vehicle operation after hours or in unsafe zones, along with remote, internet-based fleet monitoring. All of Blue Sky's HawkEye series devices feature an optional LCD touchscreen display, allowing for two-way text communication anywhere in the world. Blue Sky is a tier one service partner, value-added manufacturer and value-added reseller for Iridium Communications Inc.
