A pair of shoes embedded with global positioning system (GPS) technology can be used to detect the whereabouts of Alzheimer's patients and other wearers anywhere in the world.
The Quantum Satellite Technology (QST) shoes can be adapted to constantly detect the whereabouts of Alzheimer's and dementia patients, emergency medical service (EMS) personnel, children, or any other person whose location needs to be known constantly. In the event of any concern, distress, or danger, the wearer simply presses a button hidden near the shoe's lace to activate a covert alarm locator that sends a distress signal. Additionally, if a concern arises about the shoe wearer’s safety, their location can be identified by placing a phone call to a 24-hour monitoring service.
The shoe can also store information about the wearer’s movements and vital measurements such as heart rate, body temperature, and stress levels, useful in case of a medical emergency. An integrated Bluetooth wireless connection can be configured to make wireless telephone calls, enabling the wearer to call for help and give his precise location.
The electronics are embedded in a special module cavity containing the GPS transmitter, an antenna, and the wireless communication system. The shoe is equipped with a mini universal serial bus (USB) connection, which serves as both a power plug for the rechargeable battery and for data transfer. The internal data device can store up to 100,000 records, including a complete medical profile of the wearer, and all the tracking and monitoring information recorded.
The QST shoes are made by Isaac Daniel (New York, NY, USA) and are currently available in a limited edition of 1,000 pairs.
