Dude, where do you and Barf find all this odd and nifty stuff. However, I must point out that this is extremely practical and functional, where as Barfs findings are usuall just extremely entertaining.
BTW; Aren't you issued something like this for your on call kit for on scene location incase of something like a colapse?? SHA DO |

Thats actually REALLY cool and can be life saving!
A definite buy for people planning to be out in the wilderness for long periods of time, or even a day trip. Nice find!

Thats really creepy, it looks VERY similar, does the exact same thing, and is even the same colour as a fourth year thesis project a year or two ago someone in my program did (Industrial Design.) I wonder if they helped designed it or it got knocked off from one of the design shows the thesis project was shown at.
Awesome device none the less. |

Personal ELT's have been around for a while. This one is different as it is affordable.

If I wasn't in Mech, I would think Geomatics would have been a pretty interesting engineering department to go into.

I thought about something like this a while back... internet/satellite SOS thingies for old ladies who broke a hip falling out of the tub, or if you break a leg hiking or something... I think it was my cell phone sucking so much ass and never getting signal that made me think "Shit, if I really need this phone, I'm gonna die..."
Cool idea.

One thing to look at too - the 'alliance' for $8 a year insurance will cover you with up to $100,000 in search and rescue costs! Now, make a Blackwater version of this that responds with a wet team... heheheheh... wonder if they sell insurance for that. You do need visuals to the southern sky so its useless inside a structure. Nonetheless, I am considering getting one. I go bear hunting all the time and my wife worries terribly when I go and do my week long camp up in the bush in Temagami. This would be to keep her up to day on where I am and that I am okay. Now I just have to figure out how to trigger it from the bush when I am actually in a brothel in Hull... damn technology... |
