Globalstar launched its STX3 simplex satellite global transmitter with a low power-consuming technology, Globalstar said in a news release Tuesday (http://bit.ly/1enHlS9). “This makes the STX3 a key requirement for customers whose monitoring devices are dispersed in remote and harsh environments.” About the size of a quarter, the transmitter is designed “to be easily integrated into a broad range of machine-to-machine devices and applications for cost-effective remote sensing, tracking and monitoring of items as diverse as sheep, ships and meters,” it said.
