We recently talked with Autonet's CEO, Sterling Pratz, who demoed how the technology works. The company supplies car makers with a board that attaches to the vehicle's CAN bus and includes a 3G radio. It's capable of powering up and connecting to the Internet in less than half a second. A smartphone app provides basic keychain functionality (lock/unlock, remote start/stop, open trunk, panic on/off) and features a series of apps (car health report, geo zones, valet mode, curfew management, alarm notification, find my vehicle, speed tracker and parental controls). Of course, Autonet's cloud services tie everything together.
