Vital Alert Communication Inc. enters into a VLF research agreement with Toyota-ITC

TORONTO, July 20, 2016 /CNW/ – Vital Alert Communication Inc. announced entering into a research agreement with Toyota-ITC to evaluate position measurement using VLF (Very Low Frequency) beacons.

The need for robust position measurement at road intersections is a critical component to the safety application of vehicles. LeveragingVital Alert’s in-depth expertise in VLF technology, Toyota-ITC and Vital Alert will assess the use of VLF technologies for position location at intersections in GPS denied urban environments. In doing so, the application could reduce traffic accidents, especially in relation to bicycle and pedestrian collisions at intersections in urban spaces.

“This is an excellent example of how Vital Alert’s leadership position in very low frequency technology is providing value, not only in the development of communication products, but also in research for improved safety for vehicles” said Michael Homer, Vital Alert CEO.

Vital Alert Communication Inc. Recently Selected for Award by NIOSH

THORNHILL, Ontario – Vital Alert Communication, developer of the Through-The-Earth Communication system, has been selected for award by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) in the United States..

 

Vital Alert responded to the NIOSH Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for Development and Demonstration of Mine Safety and Health Technology with a proposal to enhance the reliability and distance capabilities of its CanaryLink Through-The-Earth Communication system.

 

The contract is focused on the development of advanced software radio techniques to reduce the effects of magnetic noise. Vital Alert’s system currently supports real time voice for a distance of over 300 metres and text for over 600 metres. While power is normally shut down during mine emergencies, at other times electrical noise from power centers and high voltage cables can reduce the operational range. These new techniques will extend the system capability to include daily operational applications, and also allow the system to achieve greater distances for voice, text and data in lower noise environments.

 

The CanaryLink and CanaryGO systems are easy-to-use, effective Through-The-Earth Communication devices that are intended to be an indispensable part of a fully integrated mine communication and safety system. They link to existing communication infrastructure and can be used for everyday as well as emergency needs.

 

Products are commercially available.
