It is not about losing privacy, not in the case of children, but people locators are increasingly requested and in more formats. In Babies and more we have talked about Childguard bracelets, Domoblue M2M People, the increase in sales of mobile phones with GPS for children and other gadgets. We have also wondered if the microchips that take care of our children can be a danger.
Kidnappings and disappearances of children are daily in the news, parents are scared of the dangers that our children are facing, and this means that these types of devices do not stop increasing, we now know that in Britain it will be put up for sale a jacket (or vest) with GPS that will allow parents to know precisely where their children are.
This garment has been designed by the company Blade Runner, who provides the clothing for Scotland Yard and the British secret services. It has a digital electronic GPS detector with a range of 15 hours thanks to the battery it incorporates. This technology will not be available to everyone, because in addition to the approximately 350 euros it has, it has a monthly fee of about 14 euros for the satellite connection. This sends updated information on the location of the child who wears the garment every ten seconds.
The system is simple, no software is necessary, just create a user on a web page, once connected when leaving home, pick up the disposition of the person anywhere in the world with a radius of four blocks.
Another application that can be given is that children have an alarm trigger in case they are in danger or have problems.
