About EMS

THE WORLD IS CHANGING – at an unprecedented pace. Yet, given the advances in communications technologies, it is connected as well. EMS Technologies is delivering a multitude of connectivity solutions, enabling communication across land, sea and sky, making possible mobility, visibility, and intelligence – for a fast-paced, information-driven, ever-changing world.

Mobility

Mobility

In these times of economic uncertainty, business travelers in particular are finding it increasingly important to be connected. A solution: an innovative in-flight broadband service that allows passengers' PDAs and laptops to communicate as seamlessly in flight as they do on the ground. EMS Formation  is helping to make possible this in-cabin connectivity – designing, manufacturing and producing hardware required for this solution, including advanced wireless access points (WAPs) and avionics-class servers for providers such as Aircell, LiveTV and Rockwell Collins. It is a remarkable advance in airborne communications. It is an opportunity for EMS Technologies.

Visibility

Visibility

Every week, oil companies use helicopters to safely shuttle thousands of people to and from oil platforms in the Gulf of Mexico, the North Sea, Alaska, and other areas. Traveling as far out as 250 miles across an open sea, these helicopters are equipped with satellite-based tracking systems – over 90 percent of which are provided by EMS Sky Connect. Whether it's search-and-rescue capability for the offshore oil industry, or voice and tracking solutions for other aircraft, ships and vehicles needing assured communications, people and assets worldwide are more visible and safe – thanks to advanced aero-connectivity from EMS Technologies.

Intelligence

Intelligence

Every day, non-government organizations deliver food and supplies to remote, needy areas of the world. What can be a logistics nightmare is made easier and safer due to landtracking solutions from EMS Satamatics. EMS systems can monitor a vehicle’s ignition and report on operational efficiency. For security, panic buttons can automatically generate e-mails and/or SMS messages to designated contacts. Organizations can also create geo-fences to monitor when a vehicle deviates from an approved route. With the ability to track and send information, employees and assets are offered greater protection, costs are reduced, and those who are in need of help can be located.
