GPS sneakers




The latest installment in the ever growing GPS market is sneakers. The shoe is embedded with a 2-inch-by-3-inch chip that is tucked in the bottom of the shoe. The GPS sneakers are guaranteed to accurately signal a persons location. Issac Daniels, the inventor of the GPS sneakers, came up with the idea after him and his sons school thought his son was missing.

I think this is a very innovative idea. These shoes can save the life of a missing person and it can aid people who suffer from Alzheimer's. Also, the technology can't be abused to find out if a person is truly in a location. Although the sneakers are pricey, the user can simply buy a another pair and use the same chip of their old pair.
