About Our Technology
Build on our strong experience of radiofrequency in harsh environment, we provide cutting-edge technologies for wildlife monitoring and to contribute to biodiversity science.
The development of hybrid wildlife tracking solutions represents a significant advancement in conservation technology. By integrating ARGOS satellite technology, GNSS receivers, and sophisticated sensors within miniaturized PCB (1.2grs), our solutions provide unprecedented capabilities for wildlife monitoring and research.
The combination of non-volatile memory systems, remote data recovery and reprogramming capabilities eliminates many of the traditional limitations of wildlife tracking while reducing research costs and animal disturbance. The enhanced sensitivity and extended range capabilities of our receivers enable monitoring of wildlife across larger territories and in more challenging environments than ever before.
As technology continues to advance, these hybrid tracking solutions will play an increasingly important role in wildlife conservation efforts, providing the detailed data necessary to protect endangered species and understand the complex relationships within natural ecosystems. The future of wildlife monitoring lies in these integrated, intelligent systems that combine multiple technologies to provide comprehensive insights into animal behavior and habitat usage.
documentation
Our R&D team partners with ecologists worldwide to push the limits of telemetry, energy harvesting and data collection.
Worldwide species monitoring program. We track diverse wildlife including squirrels, rats, bustards, pheasants, penguins, flamingos, and many more species.
In 2009, we deployed the world’s first GPS/VHF transmitter weighing just 9 grams, capable of GPS positioning every 30 seconds with 4 days of autonomous operation.
One transmitter from 2013 remains operational. Though we specify 5-year autonomy due to battery degradation after repeated charge/discharge cycles, this device continues transmitting data.

FAQ
BioLoc Rx Software decodes ARGOS and BioLoc data, generating three files: location data (Loc_XXX.txt), battery/temperature info (Tech_XXX.txt), and Google Earth visualization (XXX.kml).
ARGOS/KINEIS System is a satellite-based network that collects global environmental data from certified transmitters (PTTs) deployed worldwide, using polar-orbiting LEO satellites to receive signals and relay data to ground stations.
Our UHF link allows reprogramming all transmitters without recapture: change location schedules, adjust parameters, activate rescue mode, download data, and update firmware.
Internal sensors include temperature, 3-axis accelerometer, and battery level monitoring for enhanced behavioral analysis.
Data safety is guaranteed through internal non-volatile memory that retains all information even during power loss.
Our multi-constellation GNSS receiver supports all major satellite systems (GPS, GALILEO, GLONASS, BEIDOU, QZSS) providing comprehensive location data including date, time, speed, HDOP, and acquisition time.
Data transmission strategy depends on study requirements, target species, and environment, with network choice being the key decision after data collection from embedded sensors.
