FedEx SenseAware will track your shipment

Recently Fedex introduced to its customers a new package tracking solution called ‘FedEx SenseAware’. This highly sensitive tracking and  information service combines a GPS sensor and a web-based collaboration platform will be available the next year. FedEx SenseAware hardware is a little device that travels inside a shipment allowing both the supplier and the customer to monitor the whole transportation process.

Smart unit that control everything

The device has a light sensor, a temperature sensor  and an A-GPS receiver. In addition to giving an exact location of the packaging SenseAware will also warn platform users,  if it is outside the required temperature range, or if it has been opened.

The FedEx SenseAware traveling with a FedEx shipment will provide users with the following information:

- precise temperature data

- exact location of the shipment

- real-time alerts in case the shipment is opened or if its  contents have been exposed to light

- analytics between trusted parties regarding the vital signs of a shipment

FedEx announced that its SenseAware tracking solution will initially target life sciences and the health care industries, since SenseAware was created through intensive research with suppliers and customers within these branches.
