Just Like a Real Dog the Gadget Hound Finds Lost Items
Francesca Castor — November 8, 2012 — Tech
How many times a day do you run around just as you're about to leave searching around for your keys or wallet? Those items seem to go missing right when you need them, but the Gadget Hound is here to save the day.
Much like a real hound dog, the Gadget Hound helps you find lost items without eating them before giving it back to you. It is a system that combines a handheld transmitter to other smaller receivers. You attach the receivers to items you tend to lose (keys, wallet, etc) and it can easily be tracked down with the transmitter. The Gadget Hound comes with four or six separate receivers that corresponds to a button on the transmitter. Using the appropriate button, an assigned sound will be made for each item allowing you to locate the lost item.
The great thing about the Gadget Hound is that it does not rely on smartphones, which works well for those who do not have a smartphone or those who tend to always lose theirs. It has the ability to track down lost items around a 3000 square-foot range. It works through walls, floors and cushions, which is great because most of our lost items tend to find themselves there.
