# Bracelets for Lost Children Dcontinuum Link Child Locator By lourdes sanchez bayas | Published 2008-05-28 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/concept-devise-to-find-lost-children-link-child-locator-by-dcontinuum References: [tuvie](http://www.tuvie.com/with-link-child-locator-hopefully-no-more-missing-children) & [dcontinuum](http://www.dcontinuum.com/content/) The basic concept behind the Link Child Locater device, designed by Dcontinuum, is that a parent, guardian or babysitter can use it to locate or keep track of children in crowded locations. The device consists of two components: a [bracelet worn by the child](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skechers-kids-find-my-skechers), which has an embedded transmitter module that works at a range of up to 100 feet, and a [watch-style bracelet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pinwheel-watch) which is worn by the guardian. This latter component receives the signals from the children and indicates their direction and their estimated distance on a small LCD display. I think this would be a very useful device since the incidence of children getting separated from their caretakers in crowded areas is a very common occurrence. However, I would have named the bracelet “no child left behind,” but I think that's already taken. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Child Locator Devices:** Opportunity for companies to develop innovative child locator devices to address the common occurrence of children getting separated from their caretakers in crowded areas. - **Wearable Technology:** Potential for advancements in wearable technology to enhance child tracking capabilities and improve safety for parents and guardians. - **Guardian Communication Systems:** Emerging market for communication systems that enable better coordination and information sharing between guardians and parents in crowded locations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Technology:** Technology companies can develop and manufacture child locator devices, wearable technology, and guardian communication systems. - **Childcare:** Childcare providers and organizations can integrate child locator devices into their services to enhance child safety and reduce the risk of children getting lost. - **Retail:** Retailers can sell child locator devices to parents, along with other related products in the wearable technology category. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Toddler Health-Tracking Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/littlebird.md) - [Senior-Targeted Wearable Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lifeline-canada.md) - [Two-Way Kids Messaging Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bot-talk.md) - [Luxurious Safety Bracelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-safety-bracelet.md) - [Kid-Friendly Digital Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/littlebird-marlon.md) - [Location-Tracking Safety Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orbit-protect-gps-tracker.md) - [Discreet Tracking Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/find-my-skechers.md) - [Kid-Inspired Safety Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartwatch-phone-for-kids.md) - [Tracker-Friendly Kids Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skechers-kids-find-my-skechers.md)
