Parents to monitor their kids using gps Mobile Phone tracking tech
Parents can locate their children -- or at least their children's phones -- on their own mobile phones, or online at a password-protected Disney site. Logging into the feature online yields not only an address and accuracy rating on the address -- the basic information relayed through any inquiry -- but also a map. Accuracy of GPS readings are enhanced, because that technology is combined with the more commonly Used Cell tower triangulation method of reading a location.
Deeper Penetration of Preteen Demographic.
Like it does with its primetime cable channel programming, the entertainment giant is focusing on the tween market -- ages 10 to 14 -- as its sweet spot for mobile phone tracking services. "A phone is the most requested and most denied gift kids today ask for," Rountree explained. "It's a badge they desperately want; it's the way they keep in touch with friends."
Their parents desire a tool that lends safety, security and peace of mind. "a cell phone tracker is a natural choice," Rountree says. Unfortunately, every parent Disney interviewed had a horror story that likened giving a child a mobile phone to giving them a Credit Card and sending them to the mall. In either scenario, adults dread receiving the account statement at the end of the month.
With mobile phone's Family Monitor feature for budgeting, parents likely will be more comfortable trusting offspring with a mobile phone. In addition, they can choose to use or not use GPS to track their children.
Parents have long had the ability to call their kids to inquire about their location. However, mobile phone goes one step further by letting working moms and dads who leave home before their children board a bus for school find out whether they arrived there -- even if their phones are stashed in lockers. It can also help harried parents find the soccer field where their youngsters are practicing lest they show up across town only to find an empty green.
Mapping GPS Use Into the Future.
While mobile phone is the first free mobile phone tracking service to turn GPS technology into a consumer-controlled tool and tout the capability in its marketing efforts, other mobile communications companies aren't far behind. "We are looking into this kind of service," David Clevenger, executive director of public affairs for Verizon Wireless, told the E-Commerce Times. "It could serve as a good tool for parents."
