Proof of concept demonstrates a solution to
maintain network connectivity for real-time services in a moving
vehicle.
OTTAWA, May 31, 2019 /CNW/ - Martello Technologies
Group Inc., ("Martello" or the "Company"), a leading provider of
solutions that deliver clarity and control of complex IT
environments, announced today to mark National Autonomous Vehicle
Day, the demonstration of a network performance management solution
for mobile applications such as autonomous vehicles. The proof of
concept was developed in collaboration with BlackBerry QNX as part
of the BlackBerry QNX/L-Spark Accelerator, and was showcased at the
recently launched L5 Track in Ottawa on Tuesday, May
28th. Find out more in the video explaining
Martello's mobile network connectivity technology innovation.
Martello's mobile network performance proof of concept
demonstrates that it is possible to maintain reliable cellular
network connectivity for bandwidth-intensive real-time services
such as an autonomous moving vehicle. This offers potential for
solutions such as the mobile office, autonomous trains and drones,
disaster relief and emergency response, where reliable
communication is critical to success and safety. Martello presented
this solution recently to the Canadian Association of Chiefs
of Police on their visit to the L5 Track in Ottawa.
Working with the BlackBerry QNX technical team over six months,
Martello was able to provide connectivity to the infotainment
system inside the BlackBerry QNX vehicle. "This proof of concept
demonstrated that Martello's technology can deliver reliable
network connectivity in challenging mobile applications such as
autonomous vehicles," said Grant
Courville, VP, Products and Strategy at BlackBerry QNX.
"We're pleased to have collaborated with Martello to bring this
proof of concept to fruition, working with the BlackBerry QNX
operating system."
"This proof of concept is significant, because of the growing
number of IoT applications which will require reliable network
connectivity in challenging mobile environments, where both
capacity and demand are variable," said John Proctor, President and CEO of Martello. "I
look forward to demonstrating our technology to the broader IoT and
transportation ecosystem, and thank BlackBerry QNX for the
opportunity to prove our concept with an industry leader."
Martello's solutions have been widely acclaimed in the industry.
In September 2018, Martello received
a Frost & Sullivan Leadership Award for NPM (Network
Performance Management) and ranked as Ottawa's Fastest Growing Company, at No. 28 on
the Growth 500 list of Canada's
Fastest Growing Companies. The Company has expanded its solution
portfolio with several acquisitions, and recently provided a
business update on its market and channel expansion, product
innovation, acquisitions and capital market activities.
