Not only do they use cell-phone tech for xmit, it's cell-phone tech back to the xmitter! They have the little readout on the remote to tell you what all the little sensors they have on the car say. Engine temp, maxx rpm, maxx mph...

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Nomadio announces delay in Sensor introduction
New RC controller product now expected to ship in February
Philadelphia, PA—October 5, 2004 — Nomadio (www.nomadio.net) announced today that its first product introduction for the RC hobbyist market has been delayed by several months, and is expected to begin shipments in February 2005. The “Sensor System” was announced in April at the RCX hobby show in Anaheim California and has received great interest from hobbyists and press since that time because Sensor eliminates many of the problems that plague the RC hobby, such as accidental frequency conflicts, race-time crystal juggling, and damage from loss-of-control.
Alex Gizis, Nomadio’s CEO said, “This summer has been a frustrating yet satisfying period for Nomadio. Because of the military’s urgent need for our GC-204 UGV control system in Iraq, we allocated all of our development resources toward completing its development. With the GC-204 now on its way to field testing, we are able to complete the development of the Sensor product line. “
Gizis continued “One positive by-product of this delay is the fact that we’ve increased our system’s range and reliability beyond our previously announced specifications. While we are extremely disappointed with the delay in getting this product out to the market, we remain committed to providing our customers with a radio control system that truly solves the many problems of today’s crystal radios. Nomadio is in the RC business for the long haul and we will not ship Sensor until the product is ready. “
Nomadio’s Sensor system includes electronics that provide the driver with real time feedback of the car’s speed, the battery voltage, and the engine temperature. Unique to the RC market, the Sensor radio system is based in software and its capabilities expand greatly when it is connected to a personal computer through its USB port. Unlike legacy RC radios which operate in only 30 channels in the 72mhz band, the Sensor system uses the 2.4ghz frequency band, with redundant spread spectrum frequency hopping technology that provides hundreds of virtual channels.
## END ##
Nomadio was formed in 2002 to develop and deliver a new level of secure and robust remote control and telemetry systems for unmanned vehicles. The company has been the recipient of numerous public and private grants and awards based on the promise of its technology. Nomadio currently addresses the defense market with controls and telemetry for small unmanned vehicles, and the hobbyist radio control market, also known as RC, with a secure radio control and telemetry system. Nomadio’s products are used by several branches of the U.S. armed forces.
