A business plan for portable RF tracking devices

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This business plan is an examination of an opportunity to use portable radio frequency tracking devices for locating individuals throughout North America. Until now, many manufacturers of wireless tracking systems have focused their efforts on the tracking of vehicles and assets in shipment. The miniaturization of the electronics comprising these tracking systems is opening new opportunities for manufacturers to redirect the focus on the idea of tracking individuals.
