Yepzon Enterprises: Finnish Location Technology as a Trendsetter Through a New Product Launch
The location service developer Yepzon Enterprises is the first in the
world to introduce a safety device, Yepzon™ Freedom, which
combines an alarm function, GPS location technology, and indoors Wi-Fi
location.
TAMPERE, Finland–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#gps–Yepzon Freedom makes the everyday of adventurers, school children,
women, and the elderly safer than ever before. The device can be used in
three different ways: as a safety alarm, as a locator equipped with an
alarm, or just as a locator. With the help of Yepzon Freedom, a person
in need of help can be located in seconds via smart phone. Yepzon
Freedom uses GPS and 3G technologies and the Wi-Fi network for locating.
“Combining these functionalities in one device is something that has
never been done before. Thanks to indoor Wi-Fi location, the location of
the target can be determined just as easily on the other side of the
world as inside a shopping mall,” says Otto Linna, the founder of
Yepzon.
Freedom is Yepzon’s response to the global feeling of insecurity.
“With Freedom, we want to make everyone feel safer in their everyday
life, without fear. Globetrotters, women jogging alone, elderly people
out for a walk, and kids on their way to school can now call for help
should they need it,” explains Mr. Linna.
More and more, location technology is part of our everyday, and the
popularity of different types of locators has skyrocketed in the recent
times.
“Both consumers and retailers have shown a keen early interest in Yepzon
Freedom. I believe that active teenagers, adults, and the elderly alike
will find Freedom to their liking,” continues Linna.
Yepzon Freedom is for sale in the Yepzon online store, Amazon.com and
well-equipped electronics retailers. The recommended retail price is
€149 ($159, £129).
