The 'Guardian' is a Secure Way to Find Lost Children
Laura McQuarrie — November 12, 2013 — Life-Stages
BeLuvv’s Guardian is an incredible way to find lost children that comes in the form of a small disk that can be attached to garments like a button, or slipped into a wristwatch-like form. Parents can track the location of children through the Guardian app, but what makes this child-locating device truly unique is that caretakers can also expand the network to a number of trusted people to keep eyes on the whereabouts of a child and more importantly, find a child quickly in case of an emergency.
BeLuvv has recently launched a crowd-funding project on Indiegogo. For every two units sold, one will be donated to those in need. The aim of the ‘Give One love’ project is to eventually donate 8 million devices, since this is the number of children that go missing globally year-round.
