​This past week, at the Government API Meetup in Washington DC,  TRX Systems' CEO Carol Politi spoke about TRX NEON products (and associated APIs) that deliver location for public safety applications. Public safety personnel often operate indoors, underground, and within other "GPS-denied areas". NEON's location service is designed to enable location-based applications to keep working in these areas. During the meetup, Carol had the opportunity to discuss public safety applications and requirements with David Berlind, editor in Chief of ProgrammableWeb. The full transcript of the interview can be found here or listen to the interview at:

Next week, CTO Carole Teolis will be featured as a keynote speaker at the US Small Business Administration Innovation Research Road Tour in Honolulu, Hawaii. The two-day conference, hosted by the Hawaii Technology Development Corporation (HTDC), provides TRX Systems with a great opportunity to meet with federal funding program managers and discuss our NEON Indoor Location Solutions. You can catch Carole speaking twice on the first day of the conference (September 18th):

• 12:00-1:15 PM: Fireside Chat: From SBIR to Super Bowl
• 2:30-3:30 PM: From the Trenches Leveraging SBIR Funding

​Earlier this week, the TRX Systems team formed an action cluster at the 2017 Global City Teams Challenge (GCTC) to showcase our NEON Indoor Location Solutions. GCTC featured more than 300 companies, universities, non-profits, and federal government agencies who have created action clusters and demonstrated how these projects have impacted their cities and communities. 

​The TRX team will be at APCO International's Annual Conference & Expo in Denver, Colorado from August 14-15th.

TRX’s latest product can be found at booth #112 at the Dayton Convention Center from June 5-8.

​​The TRX team will be at the Special Operations Forces Industry Conference (SOFIC) with our partner Black Tree Group from May 15-18th in Tampa, Florida. We look forward to networking alongside our partner with over 11,000 defense industry professionals as well as top SOCOM leadership. TRX can be found at the Black Tree booth (# 2135) in the Tampa Convention Center.

​Interested in working for an award-winning developer of products that provide 3D location and mapping within challenging indoor, underground, and urban canyon environments?

Today, the TRX team is happy to announce the launch of the new NEON Command User Interface. The NEON Command Application provides an innovative new look with improved performance. The new, state of the art Command software now uses the most up-to-date, modern framework optimized for the latest Windows operating systems to provide the best possible user experience. ​

TRX has partnered with PCTEL, a leading global supplier of wireless network antenna and testing solutions, to introduce the first scanning receiver-based cellular network test and measurement solution with automated indoor/outdoor geo-referencing. With this new PCTEL-TRX solution, engineers will be able to easily collect and geolocate RF data where GPS signals are not available. The new network testing solution integrates TRX’s NEON® Signal Mapper 3D location and mapping solution with PCTEL’s SeeHawk® Touch test and measurement software and IBflex® scanning receivers. ​

​A DARPA program, called SIGMA, aimed at preventing attacks involving radiological “dirty bombs” and other nuclear threats has successfully developed and demonstrated a network of smartphone-sized mobile devices that can detect the tiniest traces of radioactive materials. A key feature of the SIGMA architecture is that it allows for automated, real-time detection, identification and tracking of nuclear threats with continuous situational awareness via web-based command and control interfaces.  More details can be found here. ​

​TRX has partnered with Tektronix to deliver a NEON® Signal Mapper solution that supports Tektronix spectrum analyzers. With this newly integrated solution, NEON Signal Mapper can be wirelessly connected to Tektronix's RSA306 and RSA500 Series spectrum analyzer solutions such that measurement data is automatically geo-referenced indoors, underground and in other GPS-denied environments. Signal Mapper provides 3D mapping, tracking and visualization as well as report generation capabilities that can dramatically reduce the time needed to signal map a building.

Today, TRX announced the availability of an enhanced feature set for the NEON® Signal Mapper solution. This new feature set further simplifies the task of collecting, mapping, and analyzing the performance of wireless networks in complex buildings and campuses. ​

​TRX was recently invited to participate in the Winter Institute at Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service (TEEX) in College Station, Texas.  Winter Institute 2016 was hosted by the EDGE Innovation Network which connects government, industry, and academia in an operational setting to encourage problem solving and technology integration. ​Participants at TEEX were able to experiment and evaluate NEON® Personnel Tracker and various other applications and technologies during end user focused training sessions and a daylong emergency response exercise. ​

​Today, we are pleased to announce the launch of NEON® WiFi Mapper. In association with TRX’s industry leading NEON location technology, WiFi Mapper enables simple and fast 3D WiFi mapping and heatmap visualization. We are excited to release this affordable, easy to use, and time saving solution to the commercial enterprise market. NEON WiFi Mapper is now available for purchase at the TRX Systems store.

​TRX Systems, developer of NEON® location solutions, announced that the NEON Personnel Tracker solution is now available with an ultra-wideband option. The new UWB option enables enhanced ranging and higher accuracy positioning inside buildings and in other GPS-denied environments.

​TRX Systems is pleased to announce that we have been awarded patent 9,395,190, Crowd Sourced Mapping with Robust Structural Features.  This newest patent complements two patents TRX was awarded in May (9,322,648 & 9,297,658), enhancing IP protection for the NEON indoor location technology.

​NEON Signal Mapper was selected as a winner of TMC's Communications Solution Product of the year award for 2016. One of TMC's most coveted awards, the Communications Solutions Products of the Year Award honors exceptional products and services that facilitate voice, data and video communications.

​TRX Systems, developer of NEON® Signal Mapper, is now partnered with Cobham, a world leader in Land Mobile Radio test and measurement, to deliver an integrated LMR Signal Mapping Solution. This innovative new solution will be showcased at the 82nd Annual APCO International Conference and Expo, August 15-16, 2016 in Orlando, Florida. TRX will be in  APCO booth #1507 at the Orange County Convention Center. ​
