Raymarine LifeTag Wireless Man Overboard (MOB) System

Raymarine LifeTag Wireless Man Overboard (MOB) System (http://rbi.ims.ca/4930-509).Using ZigBee wireless technology, the LifeTag system detects and sounds an alarm if a crew member falls overboard or moves beyond 30 ft of the boat. The Wireless MOB Pendant operates a year or more on a single CR2 3V lithium battery (over 200 operational hours). Using Ember's EM250 ZigBee System-on-a-Chip (SoC), Raymarine engineers built the ZigBee-based product in less than 50 days. The SoC combines a 2.4-GHz IEEE 802.15.4 compliant radio transceiver with an industry-proven 16-bit microprocessor to simplify the design-in process.
