HONG KONG, Sept. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Star Systems International (SSI), a market leader in Smart City Products, today announced the launch of its Astro Premium E-Tolling Transponder. Astro is certified for Interoperability in Tolling Systems. It is a dual-purpose transponder and is tuned to deliver remarkable performance on a windshield or headlamp of any vehicle.
Astro comes with improved sensitivity, a large user memory bank, and advanced security. It is fully tested and certified for conformance and interoperability for tolling. Along with being Gen2V2 compliant, it features innovative self-error detection features.
