Seeker Wireless

When SPH Search decided to launch Singapore’s first location-based mobile search and directory service - Rednano Locate - it chose to partner with Seeker Wireless, a leading provider of zone detection technology, and Acision, the world’s leading messaging company. SPH Search employed Acision and Seeker Wireless’ technological leadership to aid in its goal of providing this revolutionary mobile search marketing solution.

Vodafone Romania implemented the Home Zone system, which is a worldwide initiative from the Vodafone Group. To register Home Zones, Vodafone utilised an innovative handset location package called SeekerZone™, from Seeker Wireless, which gives more accurate positioning than the alternative method of pinpointing zones by using existing networks. It achieves this by distributing responsibility for zone status detection and reporting to the handset, enabling operators to scale Home Zone operations to millions of handsets without any need for extra capital investment in networks. With knowledge of the handset’s location at all times, real-time billing and a host of related messaging services can be enabled via the operator’s IN platform.
