IRVINE, Calif., March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Spireon, the vehicle intelligence company, today announced the launch of a new wireless version of GoldStar ^®, the company’s award-winning vehicle tracking and collateral management solution for Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) dealers and auto lenders. The first wireless device for the top-rated GPS provider, the new GoldStar Wireless hardware can be self-installed and activated within minutes to facilitate crucial data collection, monitor default predictions, locate on demand, and, when necessary, streamline quick asset recoveries.

With no hardwires or tools required for set up, GoldStar Wireless enables reliable reporting without the need for skilled technicians, streamlining vehicle onboarding and improving accuracy. An IP67 rating means the device is protected against accidental environmental exposures to water and dust for greater flexibility in installation locations.

«Hardwire installations require skill and incur costs,» said Brian Skutta, president of Spireon Automotive. «Now, auto dealers and lenders that need simple monitoring and quick recoveries can tap into the ease of installation GoldStar Wireless offers while enjoying the reliability of the GoldStar brand.»

GoldStar Wireless operates with an advanced, extended life battery of up to three years and allows dealership and lender customers to activate one of three tracking modes over the lifetime of the device to meet their needs: Quick Track, Daily Track and Recovery Track.

• Quick Track: GoldStar Wireless is the first solution in the industry to use extended stops to automatically capture where a driver lives and works within the first 14 days of installation for automated validation of loan stipulations. GoldStar’s patented Reference Genie^™ technology makes the distinction between typical and extended stops to create an accurate location profile for drivers, providing lenders with stronger risk mitigation.
• Daily Track: Two weeks after installation, the device switches from the Quick Track mode to Daily Track, eliminating the time and labor associated with swapping modes to preserve battery life. Daily Track continuously validates the work and home addresses reported by Quick Track and verifies the health of the tracker.
• Recovery Track: If necessary, customers can locate the vehicle on demand and can also deploy Recovery Track to identify the real-time location of a vehicle using patented Location Genie^™ technology, which predicts the best time and place for vehicle recovery. Recovery Track also sends a notification to the dealer if a vehicle enters an impound lot. Impound lot alerts are powered by GoldStar’s national database of more than 10,600 impound lots which assures quick detection to reduce annual costs associated with impound lot fees for abandoned vehicles.

«The best part of GoldStar Wireless was how straightforward the installation was,» said Eddie Galindo, Finance Manager, Discovery Auto Sales. «We installed our wireless devices easily and have had no issues with getting data.»

The introduction of GoldStar Wireless expands the Spireon auto solution suite, which includes GoldStar Connect, a full featured mobile-application that helps BHPH dealers and lenders build customer loyalty and mitigate risk, while providing customers with the benefits of connected car technology. GoldStar Connect, which is also available in Spanish, offers real-time location, trip history, vehicle health alerts and recovery solutions for stolen vehicles.

RA’ANANA, Israel and MCLEAN, Va., March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ —  D-Fend Solutions, the leading counter-drone cyber takeover technology provider, announced today that its counter-small, unmanned aerial system (C-sUAS) technology, EnforceAir, already supports the remote ID rule recently passed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) that requires remote identification (remote ID) for large categories of drones in the U.S.

D-Fend’s technology is remote ID ready in the U.S., Europe and Asia.

EnforceAir offered identification capabilities prior to the passage of the FAA’s final rule, supporting unique ID per serial number, accurate location information for the drone and ground station, and additional identification parameters.

D-Fend’s system will continue to support this regulation, providing customers with updated identification information following the adoption of the law by various drone manufacturers. System operators can see the remote IDs of detected drones via EnforceAir’s intuitive graphical user interface, offering law enforcement agencies and other organizations greater visibility and data

«The entire drone ecosystem should benefit from the FAA’s rule, including drone manufacturers, who have a vested interest in ensuring that their products are not used for illegal purposes; law-abiding drone operators, who will be able to fly their drones over certain crowds and at night; and law enforcement personnel, who will obtain important information from leading counter-drone technologies about drones and operators involved in dangerous or hostile incidents,» said Zohar Halachmi, Chairman and CEO, D-Fend Solutions. «D-Fend is honored that our technology has been tested, selected and trusted by top tier U.S. government agencies and we will continue to work with them to reduce the drone threat, while ensuring our continued system evolution includes the functionality required by new rulings.»

«This new rule by my former colleagues at the FAA is an important step in better regulating drones in the United States,» said Michael Huerta, former Head of the FAA and current D-Fend Solutions’ Advisory Board Member. «I strongly believe in D-Fend’s mission to support today’s drone-powered society by making it safer and more secure, which this rule and D-Fend’s technology will help facilitate.»

D-Fend Solutions’ multi-disciplinary team is closely studying this rule to anticipate its potential effects on the counter-drone space in the U.S. and act as a trusted advisor to its clients. The company continuously upgrades and improves its technology to benefit customers and comply with applicable rules and regulations worldwide.
