Ideal for hikers and adventurers to ensure they can stay in contact with others in case of emergency, the device creates a 100% secure connection that can be used for a variety of communication capabilities. The 'GOTOKY' is the design work of Denis Loncar who developed the device after a [hiking accident](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trailmate) that left him stranded without access to help. Loncar hopes the device will be a reliable and affordable solution that can be implemented into the roster of essential gear of avid outdoors people. The device makes use of [license-free radio frequencies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handheld-navigation-device) to connect with others within a several mile radius. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 89% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Off-grid Network Connectivity:** The rise of off-grid network connectivity devices for outdoor enthusiasts presents opportunities for disruptive innovation in the outdoor gear and technology industries. - **Emergency Communication Devices:** The emergence of emergency communication devices like the 'GOTOKY' opens up opportunities for disruptive innovation in the telecommunications, outdoor gear and adventure tourism industries. - **Secure Communication Platforms:** The development of secure communication platforms like the 'GOTOKY' presents opportunities for disruptive innovation in the telecommunications and network security industries. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Outdoor Gear:** Outdoor gear companies can explore disruptive innovation opportunities by incorporating off-grid network connectivity devices like the 'GOTOKY' into their product line. - **Telecommunications:** Telecommunications companies can explore disruptive innovation opportunities by tapping into the growing market for emergency communication devices like the 'GOTOKY'. - **Adventure Tourism:** Adventure tourism companies can explore disruptive innovation opportunities by offering communication devices like the 'GOTOKY' as part of their adventure packages to enhance safety and security for their customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Connected Off-Grid Walkie-Talkies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lito-walkietalkie.md) - [Satellite Communication Smartphone Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hmd-offgrid.md) - [Adventurer Connectivity Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/offgrid-satellite-communicator.md) - [Wearable Satellite Communicators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-global-hotspot.md) - [Off-Grid Multimedia Communication Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garmin-inreach-messenger-plus.md) - [Emergency Satellite Smartphone Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorola-defy-satellite-link.md) - [Hands-Free Communication Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milo.md) - [All-in-One GPS Guide Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-gps-guide.md) - [Satellite Communication Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garmin-inreach-messenger.md)
