Track the Body, Not the Box.
BluTag® Hybrid and BluTag® Active devices have the same physical attributes and share many features regardless of the monitoring mode. This Global Positioning System (GPS) device is different from the other BluTag® devices because of its internal programming and communication.
BluTag® Hybrid communicates device tampering and inclusion zone violations with near real-time data like BluTag® Active. The device also allows supervising officers to “ping” it, which immediately transmits an offender’s current location, regardless of when the last GPS coordinates were received.
Offenders monitored with BluTag® Hybrid may require a higher level of supervision than what is offered with passive GPS monitoring, but not as intensive as active GPS monitoring. Supervising officers can better manage their caseload and resources by receiving notice of tampering and inclusion zone violations that contain near real-time data.
A distinct advantage of BluTag® Hybrid is its ability to easily and quickly convert to active GPS monitoring without changing equipment. Supervising officers need only call, email or fax StreeTime’s Operations team any time of the day or night to switch the device to active GPS monitoring.
Data Transmissions
BluTag® Hybrid can transmit monitoring data using a cellular network. The device transmits monitoring data approximately twice a day when using a cellular network. Those transmissions occur when the offender attaches the battery charging coupler to the BluTag® Hybrid device.
