SafeKardTM
Our vision is to create a safe environment and peace of mind for every student and employee.
Who are we?
Here at SafeKardTM, we know that nothing is more valuable than life.
We provide a secure, wearable, ID badge holder with a built-in panic button. This patented device was developed to allow emergency responders real-time location monitoring of its users when the panic button is pressed. Once activated, SafeKardTM sends the user’s information and location until help arrives.
SafeKardTM, LLC is a privately held company that holds numerous intellectual property patents combining SOS location and access control technology in a personal wearable device. We are committed to improving personal safety at high school, college, university and corporate campuses, hospitals, medical centers, and assisted living facilities.
Our focus, and our mission, is to provide economical, user-accessible solutions that operate standalone or in conjunction with existing mass notification systems, including the LoRaWAN network on which SafeKardTM is based.
The LoRa technology is growing rapidly and is being used to power the Internet-of-Things, or IoT around the world. It is already being used in over 100 countries and can be found in over 85 million products. It is the future of long-range, low-power and affordable communication solutions. Analysts estimate that by 2025, there will be 27 billion IoT connections and the value of this industry will reach approximately $3 trillion dollars. At least 10% of those devices will be powered by LoRa technology. The time to learn about and use LoRa is now!
