Blue GPS shoes are the new product of Isaac Daniel, the company that made the GPS sneakers back in 2007. Now their new GPS shoes make the users traceable by their friends and family via their cellphones and also Facebook.
The Blue GPS shoes are equipped with Bluetooth connectivity. The shoes are able to communicate by needing you to simply push a button on the shoe, which it will then link to the contacts on your cellphone and call those contacts. The push button can also link to 911 during emergency. These GPS shoes are kind of useful when you’ve lost your way in your journey.
The Blue GPS also makes use of GPS technology, so when the button is pushed, a signal is sent to ID Conex which then provides GPS tracking in the shoe. If for some reason the monitoring station cannot be reached, it’ll then trigger the call to the cops.
The Blue GPS shoes have also been crowned the “Social Networking Shoe”, as the users wearing them can be tracked on Facebook. But somehow, it sounds like it can be misused, causing the users to lose some kind of privacy. These shoes are now available in Latin America for a price tag of $150.
