Hong Kong's only in-house stolen vehicle tracking and recovery
force
Only LoJack (HK) operates a dedicated, full-time team of tracking
and recovery specialists who's sole job is to protect your vehicle.
Many car security companies claim they provide car tracking services.
However, these companies do not operate a 24-hr Command and Control
or recovery team. Both are necessary to recover stolen vehicles.
A truly covert anti-theft and tracking and recovery system
The small but very powerful Tracker system is hidden deep within
the structure of your vehicle. It has none of the giveaway antennas
or alarm wires found in old-fashioned systems, which are easily
discovered by the thief. The presence of Tracker cannot be determined
without dismantling your vehicle, and any tampering with your
vehicle triggers an immediate LoJack response.
Multiple tracking technologies designed specifically for
stolen vehicle recovery.
Most vehicle tracking companies cut costs by using only one tracking
technology: satellite GPS. Some competitors use GPS because it
is cheap to adopt, and others simply because they don¡¯t realize
that GPS tracking is only suitable for non-hostile applications
such as fleet management, but totally inappropriate for stolen
vehicle recovery.
Pinpoint Vehicle Service Ltd. also has GPS technology, but we refuse to
use it for stolen vehicle recovery systems. Why not? GPS antennas
must to see the sky to obtain location, and this means that they
can only be installed in very few places (such as under the dashboard
or parcel shelf). A thief only has to rip out the GPS receiver
or cover the dashboard with tinfoil to render it ineffective.
This is just one example of why GPS tracking is so unsuitable
for stolen vehicle recovery.
Tracker also uses multiple technologies to communicate with
our 24-hour Command and Control Centre. In contrast, our competitors
generally use only a single communication technology, which can
easily be jammed by thieves. If communications from your stolen
car are jammed, your car will be lost. Only with Tracker can
you beat the thieves with multiple communications.
Accurate tracking that works in all environments
Tracker can pinpoint the location of a stolen vehicle
to an accuracy of less than 1 metre. In contrast, GPS systems
are only accurate to 15 metres at the very best. But for the Police
to obtain a search warrant, they must be certain that a stolen
vehicle is precisely where we say it is. Only Tracker offers
this precision. In a city as dense as Hong Kong, 15 metres may
contain five or ten garages, or fifty containers. Your vehicle
may even be hidden on a different street!
A thief will always do his very best to hide the stolen vehicle
from sight, but GPS tracking systems do not work if a vehicle
is hidden. In comparison, Tracker technology will locate a stolen
vehicle in an underground car park and or even while being moved
inside a container - yet another reason why we refuse to rely
on GPS for stolen vehicle recovery.
