DataLogic International's Panther Trak™ GPS Device Wins AeA High-Tech Award

IRVINE, CA, May 12, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - DataLogic International, Inc., (OTC Bulletin Board: DLGI; Berlin, Frankfurt Stock Exchange: 779612) a provider of consulting services and communication solutions including VoIP, GPS based mobile asset tracking, and secured mobile communications, today announced that its GPS product Panther Trak™ was named the winner in the Device category at the Twelfth Annual High-Tech awards, hosted by the AeA Orange County Council.

"We thank the AeA Orange County Council for this honor," commented Keith Moore, Chairman and CEO of DataLogic International, Inc. "It is gratifying to develop an innovative product like this one when you have a great team to work with, and even better when customers tell you it is the first they've seen that really performs the way they need it to perform. To also get recognition from a prestigious organization such as the AeA is very rewarding."

Taking Global Positioning System technology a step further than the commonly understood GPS product, Panther Trak becomes part of a system offering the user a number of flexible options for real-time vehicle management services, including theft detection, recovery, and tracking.

The Panther Trak device consists of a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and a wireless modem that communicates with Personal Communication System (PCS) networks including AT&T, T-Mobile, Cingular and more. It can be programmed to allow complete control from a user's cell phone, PC, or landline. It is capable of customized functions, such as disabling the vehicle or locking its doors using a cell phone from anywhere in the world.

The wireless device, installed in a hidden location in the vehicle, can be programmed to issue an alert in the event of a vehicle theft. Using a stand-alone or web-based interface, users can query a vehicle for its location along with information such as airbag deployment, theft alarm status, speed, direction, and time idle.

The Panther Trak base station's Web-based interface relays data received from a vehicle-mounted GSM/GPRS or CDMA 1xrtt mobile device, using information obtained from the GPS. All messages originating from Panther Trak are UTC time-stamped and a mathematical algorithm is used to ensure successful delivery of critical messages. Customers can access their fleet information from anywhere in the world via the Internet or VPN.

Panther Trak has been successfully tested in the U.S., Canada, Europe, China, Mexico, and Latin America. DataLogic provides Panther Trak with multiple language support. DataLogic is forming strategic alliances with Application Service Providers to provide base stations to serve local markets worldwide, and can also customize an application specific base station to meet a customer's unique needs.
