How Titan Secure recovers vehicles
Titan Secure focuses on stopping theft before it succeeds. Its smart-engine unit can remotely cut the fuel supply, detects lock tampering and links to 24/7 emergency response. Rather than only tracking a stolen vehicle, the aim is to immobilise it so it cannot be driven far.
How Tracker recovers vehicles
Tracker combines GPS/GSM positioning with its own VHF radio network. When a vehicle is reported stolen, the control room activates the unit and recovery teams, often working with SAPS, home in on its radio signal. VHF keeps working when GPS and cellphone signals are jammed or blocked, for example in underground parking or inside a container.
