Location-Based Devices Now Notify Impacts & Accidents

pocketfinder.jpgLocation Based Technologies, has announced that the company’s PocketFinder and PocketFinder Pets devices will include additional technology that measures impact and force. When a device experiences force beyond a predetermined limit, a “High Impact Alert” along with the current location of the device will be sent to the subscriber’s notification list. This feature would be activated, for instance, if a child or pet is involved in an accident.

The functional benefits of this technology feature differentiate the PocketFinder family of products from any other personal locators on the market today, according to the Company. The announcement was made at PepCom, a press-only event held the evening before the opening of the Consumer Electronics Show Monday in Las Vegas.

According to their website pocketfinder can be used to locate children, the elderly and pets through GPS locating by contacting them via telephone or at their website.

Location Based Technologies, Inc., is a developer of leading-edge personal locator devices and services incorporating patented, proprietary technologies that are designed to enhance and enrich the lives of families globally. For more information, visit http://www.pocketfinder.com.
