Personal Tracking Device

“My name is Jess, I am an MBA student at Shippensburg University and need some feedback on a product my teammates and I are doing a project on...The main purpose of this device will be to protect children and adults in serious, dangerous situations such as kidnapping, physical attack, accidents, and sudden health issues. The device is equipped with vital signs sensors and a distress button that, when activated, will alert family members and emergency services in the event the person is in distress. We offer this device in a multitude of varieties: watches, necklaces, cell phone case, key fob, bracelet, etc. If the person finds themselves in distress as in the case of an attack or are involved in an accident, they would activate the distress button and it will alert their preset family/friends as well as emergency services with their exact location.The devices such as the watch or necklace, or any that come in direct contact with the skin will have body temperature, heartbeat, and pulse sensors. In the event of a rescue, we will know if the person was still dead or alive based on body temperature. The pulse indicator will be useful in determining if a person is near death and notify emergency services and letting them know that the situation is critical. Our services also allow for a web interface for customers to log in and monitor their loved ones location in real time, change emergency contact list, or manage their account.

What we need is your input regarding the features of these devices and the prices you would be willing to pay for such services, assuming you would want to purchase such a device. Below is the link to our survey....thanks for you help!!

“No thanks big brother, lol.”

“My wife got me one....its called my wedding ring”

“Hmm, yeah-no-yeah....

Logan's run comes to mind...”

“I completed the questionnaire. For me something like that would be only for rare special situations - for example if I was hiking in avalanche territory. I had a particular health condition that made it useful, I might take it for wilderness backpacks.”

“Yeah dOOd or better yet
Star Trek A Taste of Armageddon Let the Computers crunch the numbers”

“"In the event of a rescue, we will know if the person was still dead"...

Still dead? Lol.”

“16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. 18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[e] That number is 666.

So go with a nice unobtrusive implant on the hand or forehead. You could also get Obama to mandate it with tax penalties for anyone who doesn't maintain their subscription.”

“I guess it'd be ok for a solo hike....

I've fallen(off a cliff), and I can't get up!”

“I wouldn't wear one personally, even if I were hiking solo in extreme wilderness.

I could see purchasing one for an elderly relative, say with Alzheimer's or any medically frail relative living alone.”

“How come I can't edit my message to correct the punctuation?”

“Measure twice, cut once.”

“Reminds me of Apollo 13 where they rip off the sensors. Wouldn't it be great for my loved ones to gather around a computer together and track my final heartbeat as help arrives too late... then they can take bets on how fast my body temp will fall, great family fun!”

“Drip it your boiling water pot just to mess with them.”

“Vegas - its because of the apostrophes. Long-term problem on this site which will never be fixed because the owners don't pay any attention to it anymore. I think if you hit edit and then remove the apostrophes you are ok.”

“I would like a product that I could embed into my kids fingernail er sum such that would track them, but I don't want the guvmint to know such stuff. Is that available on the open market?”
