The Personal Locator is a completely portable GPS tracking device that will send its position and provide additional information by SMS to a GSM mobile phone. Using street level mapping software on a PC the latitude and longitude can be converted to find its position to approximately 10 metres and the Locator can also be programmed to geo-fence an area and automatically alert you when it moves outside the designated area. A sleep mode option to conserve battery life can also be programmed remotely by SMS.

Alternatively, the Locator can communicate with a GSM phone connected to a PC and automatically show its position at street level and other functions when requested.

A panic button is provided on the side of the Locator to send an “emergency” text with its position, time and date stamp.

The Locator requires a SIM card which can be “pay as you go” or an annual contract depending on how frequently the user wants to send messages. Any GSM phone will communicate with the Locator by SMS.
