Apparently, LG's been working on a wearable other than the G Watch specifically for helicopter
good, protective parents. It's called the KiZON wristband, and it comes
in a couple of cute designs aiming to entice kids to keep them on the
whole day.
After all, if it doesn't stay on, moms and dads won't be able
to use the device (with GPS and WiFi) to monitor their locations
through a phone or a tablet all the time. KiZON has functions other than
serving as a tracker, though -- kids can press its One Step Dir
ect Call button to contact a pre-configured number.
It also works vice versa, but parents get an extra perk: if the kid
doesn't pick up within 10 seconds, the device puts the call through and
lets them listen to what's going on through the built-in microphone. The
device will apparently last for 36 hours on a charge and parents will
be notified via phone if the power falls below 25 percent.
Its features
might sound a bit excessive to some, but easily-concerned
parents will be able to get one in the third quarter of 2014 when KiZON
lands in North America and Europe.
