Success Story - GPS Tracking System with 515 Vertical Light Pipe

APPLICATION

Vehicle Tracking Systems

A GPS vehicle tracking device with vertical 515 series  Optopipe® light pipes.

CUSTOMER

A manufacturer of automotive GPS tracking systems. 


SUMMARY

The customer wanted to streamline and reduce the size of their latest tracking pod.
 

The pod was small and included a 3-board stack containing a GPS, a GHz radio, and the main control board.

 

Space was extremely limited and a panel mount indicator would not work. The harsh environment also ruled out a PCB mount indicator.


Problem: Finding an indication product that fit and allowed the user to see the indicator lights while plugged into an automotive OBD port. 


DIALIGHT SOLUTION

The 3mm, 515-130x Series Optopipe® light pipes were the perfect solution.

A standard product that required no extra tooling, available with a convex lens option that made the status indicators easily viewable from the side. 


CUSTOMER FEEDBACK

"The press-fit vertical Optopipe® light pipe from Dialight was the perfect fit and came out at just the right time."
