Below is a list of our fully-integrated software partners. This is just a very preliminary list…we’re currently working with many partners. More to come soon! Join the wireless weather data wave!

Shooter

Shooter is a highly accurate ballistics calculator for the Android mobile platform (v1.6 and higher). Shooter’s primary goal is to provide accurate shot solutions quickly and easily when in the field. This is done by utilizing a proven-accurate and fast ballistics solver coupled with an advanced, intuitive user interface supporting features like firearm and ammunition profiles (so you never have to enter the same data twice) and options to use your device’s hardware (GPS, Accelerometer, Compass) to help you input shot-data both quickly and accurately.

The Field Firing Solutions software (FFS Delta series) has become the standard for real-time, long range ballistic solutions and support, computed on rugged hand-held devices for field use. The Delta IV-K software interfaces with the Kestrel 4000 BT series weather meters for on demand or continuous atmospheric and wind serial data which the software uses to automatically update its firing solutions.

Kestrel Bluetooth to Debut at US EPA Conference this weekend!

Monday, November 9th, 2009

The highly anticipated Kestrel Meters with Bluetooth series will make its official debut at the 2009 Emergency Preparedness & Prevention & HazMat Spills Conference. Kestrel Pocket Weather Meters have long played a critical role in accurate information gathering for first responders. Now, the addition of Bluetooth Technology to the Kestrel 4000 series increases its relevance AND customer convenience with instant, seamless data transmission to a laptop.

In emergency situations, every second counts. It can mean the difference between community safety and harm.

The conference will be held 11/15-11/18 in Baltimore. If you’re attending, stop by the Kestrel Pocket Weather Meters Booth, mention this blog post and receive a free gift!

We are offering a very special deal for the first 100 customers to purchase Kestrel Meters with Bluetooth if you place your order by the end of November. Interested in learning more? Contact Christine Munding at 610-447-1555 ext 227 or cmunding@nkhome.com.

All New Kestrel with Bluetooth boosts your potential across applications!

Streamline your work and reduce your equipment in the field – wireless data transmission eliminates the need for a separate interface and cabling.

Every bluetooth Kestrel will include custom communication software designed to quickly and easily configure your data transmission frequency, download logged data, graph data, and transfer data to other applications.

Data transmission range adjustment allows you to maximize power to communicate with your Kestrel at up to a 30 feet range, or reduce power for closer, more secure operation.

Individual unit ID’s ensure you pair with the Kestrel you want, even when more than one system is operating in the same area.

Permanently coded unique 4-digit Pin numbers provide extra security when pairing and transmitting data.

Power efficient Bluetooth module and software based power management maximize battery life – transmit a full set of every weather parameter once every 30 minutes with only a slight reduction in the Kestrel’s battery life.
