The Leo GPS Watch Helps You Keep Your Children Out of Harm's Way
Nikki Taylor — November 16, 2012 — Life-Stages
The Leo GPS Watch is the first of its kind that integrates a cellular device and GPS tracking into a compact wristwatch.
If your child should get into a troublesome situation, they are able to squeeze two buttons on their watch to alert caregivers that something is wrong. A message is then sent to parents and to 911 dispatchers. Parents are also able to go online to the products page and click the locate button to send a wireless alert. The Leo GPS Watch would then send back the longitude and latitude of where the child is. It is ideal for children aged six to 12.
There is also an optional locking device that secures the titanium woven seals of the watch to a child's wrist. So if the lock was tampered with by someone other than a parent, a notifying text message will inform caregivers that something is not right.
