Arrow Board Offers Remote Access and Free Cellular Connection
Solar Technology now offers a flashing arrow board that includes a built-in modem, GPS and free cellular service fo rremote communications for the life of the board.
“We’re pushing the boundaries to make our products the most technologically advanced and the best value in the industry,” says John Hayes, vice president of sales at solar technology. “With these remote communication features, we enable customers to create intelligent traffic solutions easily.”
The cellular connection will enable customers to locate their boards via GPS, check battery voltage from their desks and change arrow patterns remotely. The data also includes a recorded history of what was displayed and when. Of course, providing the cellular connection for free is a very attractive bonus, offering enormous savings over the lifetime of the board.
“Our goal is and has always been to create products that keep highways workers and drivers safe,” Hayes added. “Combining GPS technology and telecommunications into “smart” boards is the future of traffic safety, and we’re there now.”
