A wearable smart locator band is an electronic device which can be worn on the wrist of the children to monitor and keep an eye on them. As the number of mishaps with children is increasing, it is a must to keep them safe. This also helps reducing crime rates. The research study proposed the development of a wearable smart locator band that helps keeping track of kids. The developed device includes an AVR microcontroller (ATmega8515), global positioning system (GPS), global system for mobile (GSM), and switching unit and the monitoring unit includes Android mobile device in parent’s hand with web based Android application as well as location indicated on a Google Map. This development is very useful for senior people and individuals suffering from memory diseases. This device, hence, behaves as a communication interface between wearer and caregiver.

The fashion of sustaining faculty attendance each day is one significant fundamental task in all institutions. The likelihood of having a fallacy, being tampered amidst for parsimonious reasons transpires further great while handling mythical ways of managing attendance. That embeds the institution at the hazard, comprising abrupt efficient, furthermore even restricting the individual interruption in data. Besides, using a biometric mechanism engrosses more extended time plus subsistence of the design is too unusual. To complete with this wearisome process, we purpose to design a Web-based application that includes locating GPS coordinates also facial id based upon front-facing cameras concerning registering the attendance of the student which performs the method simple plus more productive. Google GPS API and camera API that exists in this application to permit the application increased flawless. The user’s attendance is verified based upon the GPS location and camera API. Also, the permission is done with facial ID via face recognition. This system necessity is sensitive to the campus location, i.e., except authorized admin, that should not operate in areas outside the institution plant. A database is used to hold track of all the user’s attendance data. The application is a user-friendly UI in which the admin can analyze the detailed reports of all the users. A monthly report of a user can be downloaded by them during the next day’s entry of their attendance. The application is capable of generating daily, monthly and yearly reports of all users. That, we intend to create alternative attendance system for organizations.

This article explores the militarization of everyday life through the emergence of a dual-use technology, the Global Positioning System (GPS), in the 1990s and first decade of the twenty-first century. It was launched in April 2010 as a Web-based multimedia piece funded by a Digital Innovation Fellowship from the American Council of Learned Societies. During the fellowship year and for several years afterward, author Caren Kaplan worked with programmer/designer Erik Loyer to produce a piece that would address the multiple social and political valences of GPS in a graphically dramatic but academically substantial manner. Ezra Claytan Daniels provided the artwork that illustrates Erik Loyer’s innovative digital “cube” design. Loyer and Kaplan developed the six storylines for the piece, and Kaplan wrote the text (see www.precisiontargets.com).Cet article explore la militarisation de la vie quotidienne entraînée par l’émergence dans la période 1990-2010 d’une technologie à double usage, le Système de localisation mondiale (GPS). En avril 2010 a eu lieu le lancement en ligne d’une pièce multimédia subventionnée par un « Digital Innovation Fellowship » (Bourse d’innovation numérique) provenant de l’American Council of Learned Societies (Conseil américain des sociétés savantes). Pendant l’année de la bourse et plusieurs années ultérieures, l’auteure Caren Kaplan a collaboré avec le programmeur/concepteur Erik Loyer à la réalisation d’une pièce traitant des multiples variables sociales et politiques du GPS d’une manière académique tout en comportant des représentations graphiques dramatiques. Ezra Claytan Daniels a créé l’art quinillustre le cube numérique innovateur conçu par Erik Loyer. D’autre part, Loyer et Kaplan ont développé les six intrigues pour la pièce et Kaplan a rédigé le texte (www.precisiontargets.com).

Visually Impaired (VI) people generally face difficulties during their pedestrian commute, when forced on to side-walks cluttered with vendors, animals and other obstacles. No single system can comprehensively cover all of their mobility needs. The proposed system intends to provide smart electronic aid for the VI which is appropriate to complement their white cane using the principles of the IoT. It detects any low-lying obstacles on its course and alerts the user to them and also uses Global Positioning System (GPS) technology which is a component of any smart phone, to pinpoint the VI's location when necessary. A feedback system, which is essentially a simple auditory circuit, which alarms the user of any obstacle, and informs priory designated guardians about the VI's current whereabouts, done by transmitting the coordinates of VI to a registered mobile number fed into an Android Application.

Seiring dengan pesatnya kemajuan teknologi saat ini, kebutuhan manusia menjadi lebih beragam, termasuk kebutuhan akan informasi. Tidak hanya media informasinya yang semakin beragam, jenis informasi yang dibutuhkan juga semakin beragam, salah satunya adalah kebutuhan informasi akan posisi kita terhadap lingkungan sekitar. Untuk memenuhi kebutuhan itu sebuah sistem pemosisi diciptakan. Sistem pemosisi yang banyak digunakan saat ini cenderung berfokus pada lingkup ruang yang besar (global) padahal, dalam lingkup ruang yang lebih kecil (lokal) sebuah sistem pemosisi juga diperlukan, seperti di ruang-ruang terbuka umum (taman atau kebun), ataupun dalam sebuah bangunan. Sistem pemosisi lokal yang ada saat ini sering kali membutuhkan infrastruktur yang mahal dalam pembangunannya. Aplikasi Pemosisi Lokal Berbasis Android dengan Menggunakan GPS ini adalah sebuah aplikasi yang dibangun untuk memenuhi kebutuhan pengguna akan informasi lokasi dan posisi mereka terhadap lingkungan di sekitarnya dalam lingkup ruang yang lebih kecil (lokal) dengan memanfaatkan perangkat GPS (Global Positioning System) yang telah tertanam dalam perangkat smartphone Android agar infrastruktur yang dibutuhkan lebih efisien. Dalam implementasinya, Aplikasi Pemosisi Lokal ini bertindak sebagai klien dengan dukungan sebuah Database Server yang berfungsi sebagai media penyimpanan data serta sumber referensi informasi yang dapat diakses melalui jaringan internet sehingga tercipta sebuah sistem yang terintegrasi secara global. Kata kunci: aplikasi, informasi, pemosisi, GPS.

This paper examines the distribution of hospitality services in Uyo Urban, Nigeria. GIS method was the primary tool used for data collection. A global positioning system (GPS) Garmin 60 model was used in tracking the location of 102 hospitality services in the study area. One hypothesis was stated and tested using the nearest neighbour analysis. The finding shows evidence of clustering of the various hospitality services. The tested hypothesis further indicated that hospitality services clustered in areas that guarantee a sustainable level of patronage to maximize profit. Thus, the hospitality services clustered in selected streets in the metropolis while limited numbers were found outside the city’s central area.
