00:00:05,319 --> 00:00:11,759

Digital hey guys I'm here with our first video at CES with Christian to show us

4
00:00:13,639 --> 00:00:18,680
tracker which is pretty interesting I was interested the second I showed up to

5
00:00:17,080 --> 00:00:21,840
the booth because I constantly lose my keys I'm pretty good with my wallet I'm

6
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:25,400
pretty good with my phone but I literally can never find my keys so how

7
00:00:23,439 --> 00:00:30,519
does this work so Luke we've got a solution for you you attach the sticker

8
00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:32,279
tracker to your keys or a bag anything

9
00:00:30,519 --> 00:00:37,079
that you want to keep track of you can even stick it on a remote the app will

10
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:41,239
find that thing at the Press of a button so you press a button on the app and

11
00:00:38,559 --> 00:00:45,320
then it it makes it beep so you can see where you know did you leave it in the

12
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:49,800
couch cushions did you you know did it fall under the table and then you can

13
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:54,320
see with a hot cold indicator on the app if you're getting warmer or colder and

14
00:00:52,399 --> 00:00:57,840
then if you leave it behind it remembers where on a map you left that thing so

15
00:00:56,359 --> 00:01:03,920
this works through Bluetooth and you said the battery life was pretty insane how long is the battery life for that

16
00:01:00,559 --> 00:01:05,960
little tracker it goes up to a year on

17
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,759
uh a little watch battery so you don't have to worry about constantly plugg it

18
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:13,040
into your computer or whatever the wall to charge it which is actually really nice because you might lose something

19
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,159
for a few days and having these kind of things and having them die is really not

20
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:21,640
that helpful so there's another thing you're talking me about where you can kind of help other people find stuff

21
00:01:18,759 --> 00:01:25,280
just like ways and how does that work so in the latest Tracker app we've

22
00:01:23,479 --> 00:01:31,640
Incorporated social tracking we're calling IT Crowd tracker so if I left my

23
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:33,560
keys some somewhere and you walked by

24
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:39,000
them then you would anonymously and confidentially just REM let me know

25
00:01:35,799 --> 00:01:42,680
where my keys moved to so you can see on

26
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:44,960
this little map I've got my tracker on a

27
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:49,240
map and it knows where I left it and then if another user walks by it gives

28
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:52,159
me an updated location for that thing cool so it's Bluetooth but it doesn't

29
00:01:50,759 --> 00:01:55,320
have to fully connect it just has to kind of ping and then it updates the map

30
00:01:53,880 --> 00:02:01,680
without that user actually knowing and this is an opt-in correct so if you're kind of worried about it you can say no

31
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:05,439
correct yes so if you're interested in having other people help you find your

32
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:09,119
stuff when you lose it um then you can help other people find their stuff when

33
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:12,800
they lose it perfect so you if you're someone who tends to leave things behind

34
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:16,560
like myself this might help you a lot I also heard that it's pretty inexpensive

35
00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:19,840
so how much are the different devices we wanted to make it really easy for people

36
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:26,319
to keep track of their stuff so one device is 29 and it's two for 39 and

37
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,920
four for $80 perfect that's really not

38
00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:31,480
that bad I don't think I don't know about you is this kind of stuff you're

39
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:34,400
