Yepzon launches in India; promises smart safety solutions

New Delhi: Safety technology company Yepzon Oy has announced its official entry in India to offer mobile services with compatible positioning technology.

Launched at an event in New Delhi, Yepzon’s cloud service, together with the devices and a smartphone, tracks a person in seconds.

With just a push of a button, the safety alarm informs of its wearer’s accurate location through the mobile app. Yepzon™ Freedom is the first independent locator and alarm device combining Wi-Fi indoor positioning with 3G and GPS technologies.

Yepzon works on all key smartphone platforms, no personal information will be asked and no user credentials required. The device takes hardly a minute to pair with the phone and the battery can run up to several weeks with one charge.

It offers wearable technologies and smart clothing applications to locate people, pets, and things. The company was incorporated in 2012 and is based in Tampere, Finland with a subsidiary in London, United Kingdom; a joint enterprise in Nevada, US and now a joint venture Yepzon India. Yepzon devices are also manufactured in India.

“In 2013, we reviewed statistics on missing persons and immediately started product development. In the EU and US alone, more than a million children go missing each year.
