The system is powered by the pneumatics of the truck's existing air supply and is built to take forklift abuse and instantly convert back to a smooth floor. High-strength 11-gauge stamped, interlocking steel top plates have a galvanized finish to fight corrosion. The heavy-duty top plates feature a dual skate-wheel design that results in a smaller opening to help prevent debris from entering and puncturing the air bag. The controls are in an easy-to-access weatherproof container.

The small, portable GPS unit is self-contained and can be installed in seconds, allowing users to remotely monitor any asset from an Internet-based software package or mobile app. AssetView is powered by three AA 1.5-volt batteries, and low-power notifications remotely alert customers; the device also combines multiple technologies to help maximize battery life while operating and remaining active in low power modes. The unit's proprietary Adaptive Tracking technology increases its reporting frequency when movement is detected and automatically reduces it when stationary, which also helps extend battery life.
