Invented by a German company, the Locca! is a small compact gadget that helps people keep a watchful eye on all sorts of things. The Locca! features a GPS, SIM card, microphone and an LED device.

If you want to locate the other Locca!, simply press the button at the very top and use the GPS feature to guide you. With a long-lasting battery, motion sensor and a waterproof design, the Locca! is the perfect tool to help save time when searching for missing things. Also, the Locca! Mini and Locca!
