Kinetic Energy-Powered Tagging, Tracking and Locating (TTL) of Unpowered USAF Logistics Assets

TelemeTrak offers a real-time tagging, tracking and locating (TTL) system that will revolutionize how the AF tracks its equipment, spare parts and unpowered logistics assets, worldwide. The system uses kinetic energy-powered TTL technology to operate tracking devices and update the user every second with critical location-based data. It can be equipped with 128 or more sensors to support a range of additional data collection, monitoring and reporting functions. It can detect and report the RFID tags on individual items inside containers, and thus automate inventory management and free personnel for other tasks. TelemeTrak has developed the world’s most advanced, customizable and deployable self-powered real-time asset tracking system. It logs location, movements and environmental conditions while providing: the ability to track intermodal (ISO) containers, trailers, individual pallets, RFID tags and crates and other cargo, materiel and assets in real-time; a “free” self-generating electrical power source using MotionPower™ (no more battery replacement or recharging, solar panels or external power supplies); customization options to add sensors, modems, cloud-services, and tactical databases; and an affordable zero-waste solution.   This proposal seeks AF collaboration to adapt and develop TelemeTrak’s lightweight kinetic energy-powered TTL technologies for a range of logistical and intelligence functions for conventional and unconventional ops. The commercial variant of TelemeTrak is at TRL 8 for civilian logistics purposes, particularly as it relates to ISO container, trailer and individual cargo item tracking. It is already in civilian / commercial use. Current State of the Defense Solution: TelemeTrak is ready for AF logistics tracking and inventory management applications now.
