- Product Description
- UbiSafe is a Location Based Service for personal security, contact locating and emergency needs. UbiSafe can be used for monitoring elder or invalid persons in need of attendance, for personal safety, for our children security. UbiSafe is composed by a web interface for contact locating a notification rules building, a java based client for mobile phones featuring the same functionalities of the web-based interface, plus special asset chasing capabilities and a GPS personal tracker.
- Market Opportunity
- Forecasts provided by Forrester, Berg Insight, Ovum and Canalys, agree that Location Based Services is a very high potential market concerned with mobile Telco business. UbiSafe has been chosen by the leading mapping provider (NAVTEQ) and manufacturers (NOKIA / BlackBerry) for being the most innovative and promising LBS to be launched.
- DEMO Says
- While the privacy implications of UbiEst’s UbiSafe product will likely be up for debate, we also think 99% of the DEMOfall audience can relate to it on a personal level. If you don’t have an aging parent to care for, you likely have children you’d like to keep tabs on. Or both. With easy-to-use mobile access and a Web interface to manage contacts, UbiSafe may be the ultimate product for worried relatives. And a bit of a nightmare for teenagers.
