GPS stigma free "unseen" safety and security solution for wanders and caregivers:
"Invisible' solution to the invisible problem- brain injuries, Alzheimer's, autism, other cognitive issues, problems with no visible signals- stigma free safety and security is a key differentiator.
Placing the technology in the shoe accesses "Procedural Memory" which is clinically the last type of memory retained in those afflicted with Alzheimers and dementia.
Based on this, they are maximizing the odds those afflicted will have the technology on them when needed and that they can save lives, reduce stress in caregivers, and save police and related public agencies search & rescue time and costs each year.
The invisible factor changed the scope and value of the product putting the "where" in "wear"ables, making this not only a safety and security product for wanderers, but across the board for at risk journalists, realtors, woman joggers, travelers, diplomats, high level executives, etc.... all current event topics.
SmartSoles provide a safe option across activities as they are inserted in shoes and not visible to the public. Being unseen provides stigma free use, dignity and safety for the wearer so they are not a target in public while being without shoes becomes a red flag.

About GPS SmartSole
The simplicity behind the SmartSole Platform
is that when someone wanders off or becomes
lost, a geo-fence alert is sent to a phone and
computer, with a direct link to a map plotting
the wanderers location.
The GPS or BLE SmartSole become a wearable
tracking and monitoring device that
communicates the location of the wearer
without user intervention. The GPS Smart
Insole eventually becomes a communication
platform that supports bio-medical sensors;
sending location and movement and in the near
future will also send vital signs and bio-metrics,
such as heart rate, pulse and temperature.
Knowing Where is along with his/her heart
rate/pulse/temperature is a potential game
changing/life saving solution.

Hitting Critical Mass
Costs of Alzheimer's 1% of Global GDP in 2010.
Rapidly increasing number of people with a cognitive disorder. (Alzheimers, Autism, Dementia, Down
Syndrome, TBI, etc. 9 million in U.S. and growing to 106 million worldwide)
Alzheimer's disease and other dementias are rising in alarming proportions The total estimated
worldwide costs of dementia were $604B in 2010, with about 70% of the costs occurring in Western
Europe and North America.
If dementia care were a country, it would be the world's 18th largest economy, ranking between
Turkey and Indonesia. If this market were a company, it would be the world's largest by annual
revenue exceeding Wal-Mart ($414B) and Exxon Mobil ($311B).
