Continuous Development and Release of Advanced and Integrated Devices

Published: Feb 2024

The global emergency location transmitter market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period (2024-2031). Emergency Locator Transmitters (ELTs), are significant safety element in numerous industries. In aviation, they activate and transmit distress signals to help search and rescue the crews locate crashed aircraft. Similarly, in the marine industry, Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs), transmit distress signals via satellite systems to help locate vessels in obstacles. Land-based vehicles, particularly those employed in remote and challenging terrains, can be equipped with ELTs for search and rescue missions. Individuals participating in outdoor activities are able to use compact and portable ELTs known as Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs) to signal for help in an emergency. Military aircraft and vessels are also outfitted with specialist ELTs to ensure the safety and survival of crew during military operations.

The market’s growth is attributed to the rising demand for advances in search and rescue technology. The ResQLink AIS Beacon symbolizes a broader trend of developments in search and rescue technologies. As the industry embraces innovation, beacons with integrated technologies such as automatic identification system (AIS) and near field communications (NFC) become essential elements in improving emergency response capabilities. For instance, in July 2023, ACR Electronics has launched the ResQLink AIS Personal Locator Beacon, a Cospas-Sarsat approved device for boater rescue. This compact beacon integrates global 406 MHz satellite rescue services with AIS signals for local assistance. The NFC feature allows beacon monitoring via a mobile app. Designed for life jackets, it activates upon inflation and transmits AIS and distress signals for swift response. Weighing 0.42lbs, it operates for 24 hours and boasts a five-year battery life, enhancing safety with advanced technology and innovative design. FCC authorization is pending before sale.

Furthermore, as vessels and watercraft continue to adopt new safety technologies, the Tron 60AIS is a valuable addition to the range of tools available. EPIRBs, such as the Tron 60AIS, play a crucial role in facilitating a quick and efficient response to distress situations, enhancing maritime safety. In August 2023, Japan Radio Co., Ltd. (JRC) released of Tron 60AIS, a 406 MHz Satellite EPIRB for maritime safety. Compliant with revised standards, it swiftly transmits distress signals, aiding rapid vessel location.
