It enables two-way voice calls and text messages with an advanced alerting system for enhanced personal security. Fully programmable over the air via a user-friendly Web-based interface.

SKeeper™ will be displayed at the Aerotel booth (Hall 4, Level 1) as well as with our business partners:

  • Mobile Tornado: Hall 1, Booth 1G55.
  • Siemens Wireless Modules: Hall 1, Booth 1F24.
