In the article “GPS Insight Can Meet ‘Out-of-the-Box’ Requirements”, it introduces the functionality, features, and benefits of GPS Insight, which primarily provides “asset and vehicle tracking solutions”. The main function of GPS Insight is to retrieve and relay back data collected to the user for analysis, all while happening in real time. The article also stated that the features of GPS Insight are “configurable and customizable” according to the user’s requirements and preferences. To be able to meet user’s ever-changing demands and requests, GPS Insight introduces new features based on user’s response and feedback. Due to GPS Insight’s customizability, it is able to perform at different degrees of comprehensiveness, making it a versatile product.
After reading the article, I would agree to a large extend that GPS can meet ‘Out-of-the-Box’ requirements. GPS Insight collect data real time so users could plan their route without having to wait. Also due to the fast growing pace of this world. It is able to perform at different degrees of comprehensiveness. Therefore, having GPS Insight. Users would experience a smooth journey in finding their way to their destination.
In an article on "The Evolution of Telematics" (February 2011, by Lauren Fletcher and Grace Suizo) mention about the usage of GPS in their product called "MARCUS Fleet Tracking solution" . This tracking solution is being used to do collect productiveness and usefulness data while cutting down on fuel and other costs. It also reduces the time of vehicle not moving. The tracking solution also use GPS in real time. It allows users to access from either their computer, smartphone or any web accessible devices. Which will keep users updated at a fast speed with the results they wanted. This is to keep up with the times as everyone nowadays have at least a smartphone with them.
One of the example that this product could do is to be able to notify users by sending e-mails on a regular basis for important things. Like the waiting time and the speed of the vehicle. The MARCUS Speed Limit, a real-time notifying function that alerts the manager of the product and the user when the vehicle exceed the speed limit when cruising along the expressway.
There are other product that uses GPS in a creative way but all of them serves the same purpose. Which is to make things convenience for others and to suit the lifestyle users are living.

Hi Boris
ReplyDeleteIn regards to the first draft, paraphrasing could have been better for phrases like "out of the box." "Asset & Vehicle" were not sighted in the article. Verb tenses should be more consistent (i.e. "states").
Generally it is a relatively good summary. Looking forward to your next draft.
Thanks & Regards
