Smart phones really are “smart” with iFind Mobile

iFind Mobile supports any smart phone or PDA that is equipped with GPS technology. iFind Mobile is based on a hybrid solution: no matter what the source of information, iFind Mobile can use it at any time to find a location. “With iFind Mobile services, a world of new applications opens up,” said Pieter Scherrenberg, director of FindWhere, who entered the company into the European Satellite Navigation Competition 2010 which is held annually by Kennisalliantie. The company situated in Bilthoven, reached a final round.

Multiple possibilities:

FindWhere is a leading provider of safety and security solutions based on positioning by mobile phones and GPS devices. “We have a detailed protocol which defines a multitude of possibilities; a generic alarm button, but also personal alarms, breakdown assistance, and allowing your support staff to be fully mobile without worry. The core of iFind Mobile, LAMP, is also open to input location and processing of third party applications.”

Localization and associated alarm to a care center:

Peter Scherrenberg sees plenty of opportunities: “Management of service employees. Elderly can live independently for longer thanks to the security location detection and panic button functionality. The possibilities are almost endless: with a need for location information – in whatever form – iFind Mobile helps better your business’s results. We invite anyone who is looking for an innovative solution to contact us and with us, to jointly analyze how we can meet their needs. Our solution is scalable and can also be used directly through an API to integrate external software! If interested, these programs can be tested completely free of charge from a demo iFind Mobile account”
iFind Mobile is now incorporated in various international monitoring centers. “We are also, after extensive pilot studies, by several insurance organizations selected as preferred partner.”

“Quality is key! Hold onto your goals. The competition is certainly attractive, but the idea behind the product as well as the team must be well motivated in order for your business to function properly, and therefore have a chance to place first in the league!”
