Company Overview

Profile

ConnectedWireless™ was incorporated in 2002 as a separate entity within Systems & Processes Engineering Corporation (SPEC) in Austin, Texas to concentrate on what had become a rapidly expanding "automated asset management" business. From its humble beginnings with the USAF's Air Mobility Command, and its legacy system, Falcon Gateway™, ConnectedWireless™ has been providing critical Command & Control (C2) system support to the nation's strategic airlift fleet since 1996. Today, Falcon Gateway™ moves over 35,000 messages per month between command and control nodes on the ground, and the USAF's heavy airlift fleet. In addition to C2, AMC also initially funded and directed CWC's efforts toward Automated Identification Technologies (AIT) enabling expert management of cargo and personnel.

Core Compentencies

As a result of its Falcon Gateway experience and subsequent investment, ConnectedWireless Corp developed three essential core competencies which enable the expert integration of existing systems:

• Optimization of Low Bandwidth Channels/Links to remotely transmit large volumes of data. Using proprietary compression, data management, and encryption techniques—and utilizing a "store and forward" architecture, CWC is able to effectively use many "low-bandwidth" communication links (i.e., cell phone, HF, Iridium, INMARSAT) to move very high volume text data. This enables CWC to create logistics systems selecting Comms channels based on regional availability and cost—giving the customer best value and performance.
• Remote Data Capture. Using Small Hand-Held, Battery Powered Devices, CWC has pioneered the use of a variety of fully integrated interrogators/readers to expertly capture all forms of Automated Identification or other Sensor Technologies, regardless of the source. Whether 1D/2D Bar Code, RFID Tag (Active or Passive), Temperature, Shock, Humidity, etc. CWC Hand-Held Interrogaters/Readers are designed to gather and forumulate the precise data desired.
• Remote Message Formulation, Transmission, and Delivery. Using any one of a variety of CWC's unique environmentally hardened case designs (Operating Range: -60 Degrees F to +140 Degrees F), the user is able to seamlessly download data from the Hand-Held device, formulate the proper data message at any point on the globe, and send to any number of recipients /AIS's world-wide using CWC's proprietary DAVS Server & Message Router (DSMR) architecture.

Taken together, CWC's core competencies enable the integration of Transportation, Logistics, Maintenance, Medical, or other systems, enabling customers to capture critical data in extremely austere regions and send expertly formulated messages in near-real time wherever required.
