The tracking and safety smart watch is a signaling device that is worn in the manner of an accessory. The tracking and safety smart watch communicates through messages with an appropriate authority such that security information regarding an individual wearing the tracking and safety smart watch can be monitored. The tracking and safety smart watch allows an appropriate authority can determine the location of the tracking and safety smart watch and to monitor the exterior surroundings of the tracking and safety smart watch. The tracking and safety smart watch provides for the transmission of an emergency message from the individual to the appropriate authority. Safeguards are incorporated into the tracking and safety smart watch to prevent removal of the tracking and safety smart watch from the individual without the approval or the appropriate authority. The tracking and safety smart watch comprises a timepiece, a control system, and a housing.

A monitoring device, including an encasement having an upper part and a lower part; wherein the lower part is attached by a hinge at a first side of the encasement to the upper part; wherein at an opposite side the upper part can be lowered onto the lower part to close the encasement or lifted up to open the encasement; an elongated strap with a first end and a second end wherein the first end of the strap is attached to the first side of the encasement and configured to enable coupling the monitoring device to a person by wrapping the strap around a limb of a person, and inserting the second end of the strap into the opposite side of the encasement onto the lower part and covering it with the upper part.

A wearable device, a non-transitory computer readable recording medium that stores a control program, and a control method are disclosed. A wearable device comprises a belt and a processor. The belt is to be fastened to a body. The processor determines whether the wearable device is removed from the body. The processor notifies another device of removal of the wearable device from the body when determining the removal.

A wearable device and a system for tracking the wearable device may enhance safety and peace of mind for a parent or caretaker of a child or other individual. The system may include a computing device, such as a smartphone, executing an application that provides alerts based on a distance between the computing device and the wearable device exceeding a threshold distance, based on the wearable device crossing a define geographic boundary, or one or more similar triggers. The wearable device may include an input button that allows a user of the wearable device to send a signal to the computing device of the parent or caretaker. An alert on the computing device might be disabled by pressing the input button on the wearable device.

A tracking and alarm system, including at least one wearable tracking device to be worn around at least a portion of a body of a user, at least one primary receiver connected to the at least one wearable tracking device to receive a location of the at least one wearable tracking device based on a GPS signal, and perform at least one of emit an alarm sound and display an alarm warning thereon, and at least one mobile device connected to the at least one wearable tracking device to receive a location of the at least one wearable tracking device based on a GPS signal, and perform at least one of emit an alarm sound and display an alarm warning thereon.

A tracking device, including a communication interface encased in a encasement with a receptacle on two opposite sides of the encasement, a strap, including one or more thin elongated flexible sheets, links coupled to one side of the one or more thin elongated flexible sheets, a fiber optic cable extending from a first end of the one or more thin elongated flexible sheets to a second end of the one or more thin elongated flexible sheets, a head connected to each end of the one or more thin elongated flexible sheets; wherein the heads are configured to fit into the receptacles and lock the strap in the receptacles thus preventing the strap from sliding out of the receptacles; and wherein the communication interface is configured to detect tampering with the strap by transmitting an optical signal through the fiber optic cable.

Various embodiments provide systems and methods for providing check-in services for monitored individuals.

Various embodiments provide systems and methods for encouraging progress toward a lower level of monitoring for a monitored individual.

The present invention is related to monitoring movement, and in particular to systems and methods for securing a monitoring device to a monitor target.

A mobile device includes a body configured to be worn by a user; a lock switchable between an open state and a closed state, where, when the lock is in the closed state, the mobile device is prevented from being removed from the user; and a wireless data system, where the wireless data system and the lock are jointly configured such that, when the lock is open, the wireless data system is at least partially disabled.
