Push to Talk Plus (PoC+)

Push to Talk Plus, also known as PoC+, is an application that uses a method of conversing on half-duplex communication lines, including two-way radio, using a momentary button to switch from voice reception mode to transmit mode. It uses a service option for a cellular phone network which permits subscribers to use their phone as a walkie-talkie with unlimited range. One significant advantage of PoC+ is that it allows a single person to reach an active talk group with a single button press; users need not make several calls to coordinate with a group.

Smartface Platform

Smartface Platform is drag-and-drop cross-platform mobile application development and management tool and first released in 2006. Smartface Designer, the component of Smartface Platform enables visual development of mobile applications with drag-and-drop actions and interactive wizards. Smartface Server the other component of the platform provides an application life-cycle management system, with capabilities of distributing, tracking, promoting and advertising of applications. After its spin-off from Mobinex in 2014, the next generation of the platform, Smartface App Studio is being developed by Smartface Inc, a Palo Alto company.
