The FOX-EN is a configurable smart tracking device which can be fully adapted to user requirements. Its main purpose is to act as a mobile client for various system solutions like AVL, fleet management, vehicle security and recovery. The device can operate fully autonomously and is able to interact with sensors. It can be adapted to existing tracking solutions and can be easily configured to gather or exchange relevant information with servers or users directly. An often used example is to send status reports or verbose alert messages directly via SMS to users and/or via TCP to tracking servers. 

Users benefit most from combining comfort and security aspects for example having regular voice calls as well as spy calls in emergency cases. Drivers logbook and data logging functionalities are combined in the history feature. Geofencing can be used to report violations of predefined routes or areas (for example if a car enters or leaves a specific area/no-go-zones). All of these features are perfectly integrated in a device concept which significantly reduces time to market and provides low cost tracking and security solutions.
