September 2010 Email to a friend   Comment on this article
Masternaut Three X has launched a vehicle tracking service for the iPhone and iPad that provides a real-time link to operational information for mobile fleet managers and technicians.

Vehicle tracking app arrives for Apple iPhoneDubbed Masternaut Rapide, the app covers the core functions of the live Masternaut service, and Johann Levy, R&D manager at Masternaut, says it's free to iPhone and iPad users.

The system can locate and monitor vehicles, as well as provide movement histories – and provide instant views of the nearest mechanic.

"The system is extremely fast and reactive. There is no downloading of web pages. It gives a full map view for locating vehicles and staff at any time and provides satellite images," states Levy.

Blackberry and Android phones will be next for the treatment, he says.
