Children-Tracking GPS Services

Trax Lets Parents Track Pets and Children Wherever They Go

— February 16, 2014 — Tech
A good GPS service can be a great thing and most people are hip to the idea of using them now. GPS has been used for everything from finding directions in cars to finding lost phones, but Trax will allow users more control than other GPS devices before it.

Trax is specifically designed for parents who want to exercise a bit more control over their children and pets. Trax is a small clippable piece of tech that can easily attach to children's clothes, collars and other articles on children and animals. After Trax is attached, parents can see where their children are going in real-time.

The Trax GPS service also lets parents keep track of distance traveled and even set up geo-fences to keep their children in. When a child leaves the mapped location, the parent will be informed.
Trend Themes
1. GPS Tracking for Children and Pets - Trax provides parents with the ability to track their children and pets in real-time using GPS technology.
2. Geo-fencing for Childhood Safety - Trax lets parents set up geo-fences to keep children in safe zones and allows for alerts when the boundaries are crossed.
3. Wearable Tech for Family Use - Trax's wearable technology allows for easy attachment to clothing and other articles on children and animals for real-time tracking.
Industry Implications
1. Wearable Technology Industry - The wearable tech industry can benefit from the development of Trax-like devices for family tracking.
2. Child Safety Industry - Trax presents an opportunity for the child safety industry to innovate and incorporate GPS tracking into their products.
3. Pet Care Industry - Trax provides an opportunity for the pet care industry to integrate GPS tracking into pet collars and improve pet safety.
