ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Prof. Jorge Saguinsin

After writing my first "New Idea" for this Entrepreneurship class, I still got 11 more to go.

I've been married for almost over a year now and in that short period of time God blessed us with a very very pretty daughter, Olivia. She's very "bibbo", active, wise, playful, and the qualities will keep going and going if I should right all her qualities here.

At the age of 10 months my daughter started walking with my help, but just after a few weeks she can walk by herself. Now she runs and sometimes even hates when I hold her hand while walking. She wants to be independent, walk and run around malls. And because of that I thought of this new idea.

Every parent's worst nightmare is to lose sight of their baby in a large crowd while playing in the malls or in the park. I, myself, won't take my eyes off of my daughter. But sometimes there are instances that I will get distracted. Maybe someone from the crowd will call my name, then I will try to look for that person who called me, then in a matter of seconds my kid is not in my sight anymore. But luckily that never happened. But what if it did happen? What will I do?

In this new idea, I thought of putting a GPS device in every shoe that kids will wear.  It will act like a tracking device where you can see every movement and or every place your kid will go.

How will it benefit me and others?

My wife and I love going to malls with our daughter. We love seeing her walking around and playing with other kids. And for sure we are not the only parents who love seeing their kids having fun. If my daughter and every kid have this GPS attached on their shoes, then the concern of losing our child may not be eliminated but it can surely lessen the said feeling. Now every parent knows where their little angel is.

A GPS costs more than a thousand bucks. And putting this technology on a pair shoes can cost even higher. But are there any parents out there who will not buy the best for their kids, knowing it's for their safety, I guess NONE!

So in conclusion, if I will be given a chance to produce this kind of shoes and let my kid wear it, I will be definitely the first one!!! 4 < a transponder?  rfid>
