Smart Shoe Tracker For Elderly Loved Ones

There are various wearable technologies that can help keep our loved ones safe. GPS trackers, bracelets, and ankle devices are just a few of the many options available. These small and lightweight gadgets are often used as a safety measure.





One technology company has developed a smart shoe that will help you keep an elderly loved one safe. It comes with a built-in GPS tracking chip that will send you alerts when the wearer wanders outside a predefined area.

The most interesting part is that this particular tracker is not visible. Unlike traditional devices that are hidden in the back of a person's shoe, the SmartSole is concealed inside the insole. This makes it a safe option for older adults with Alzheimer's disease.

The SmartSole is a GPS powered shoe insole that can be tracked through a secure internet portal or a smartphone app. The insole uses a cellular signal to communicate with the device, which in turn transmits its location to a corresponding website.

In addition to its ability to track the wearer, it has other features including a SOS button. If the wearer should find themselves in a life-threatening situation, the system will notify the caregiver.

Another cool feature is that the SmartSole can be used by multiple users at once. Rather than using a single computer to check the wearer's whereabouts, a variety of family members and care providers can log in and view the location of the wearer.
