Portable Collision Avoidance Systems...?

Evening folks,

I've just seen a well-known pilot supplies website pimping a 'Portable Collision Avoidance System' on its homepage. Comes across as the little brother of TCAS.

Has anybody ever used something similar or know anything about how well these systems work? What's the principle behind them - I assume it centres on the transponder?

Any info appreciated - just an intrigued PPL student!

Cheers,

V1R
