Wavecom and Celevoke have announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding outlining plans to work together in the development and marketing of Celevoke automotive and motorbike tracking products using the Wavecom Q2687 Wireless CPU and related services.

The Celevoke Anti-theft Tracking System is initially targeted to the Brazil and USA markets, with the ultimate objective of expansion into other South and North American markets.

Celevoke is developing its proprietary next-generation anti-theft tracking system using Wavecom Open AT Software Suite to embed their application directly on the device - cutting both development time and bill of materials.

Custom offerings of the advanced system are focused on the dynamic power sports (motorcycles, quads, wave runners, snow mobiles etc) and recreational vehicles markets. Already top insurance companies have agreed to offer their customers significant discounts for employing the system.

"In order to succeed with this project, we knew we needed the most robust, automotive-grade, cost-effective cellular radio solution available," said Celevoke CEO Chuck Allen.

"That's why we chose Wavecom's Q2687. It allows us to save on component costs and get to market that much faster - to our benefit and that of our customers."

"Wavecom is delighted with being chosen by Celevoke to work on and enable this dynamic solution," said Anders Franzen, President of Wavecom Inc. "Celevoke knows anti-theft tracking and stolen vehicle recovery, and we're proud to help keep insurance costs in check for business and consumers, especially in today's difficult economic environment."

The new Wavecom-based Celevoke system is expected to reach the market in Brazil and the U.S. in the second quarter of this year.
