Disclosed is a wearable personal locator device that communicates the location of a wearer to an administrator input terminal. The device is a wearable structure comprising either a wristband or adhesive patch, whereby the device registers whether or not the device is actively being worn by the wearer and provides a means to receive alert signals sent from the administrator input terminal. The device includes a processing unit, a power source, an antenna, and a communication means for processing and transmitting location data to the remote input terminal. The device further comprises one of several wearer contact means, including a heat sensor for registering body heat of the wearer, a pressure sensor adapted to be pressed against the wearer, or a frangible circuit that registers when the device is removed from the wearer. The device provides a location monitoring means for children traveling in groups with at least one administrator. |
