Nokia Locate Sensor

Story posted on: January 12, 2009. Filed in: nokia.

Here’s a rather innovative device that Nokia has come up with, the Nokia Locate Sensor. It’s basically a small device that that can be attached to a something that you’re worried you forget about, like your wallet or car keys. After that, the Nokia Locate Sensor will communicate wirelessly to the user’s phone via a software app, and will sound an alarm when specified events happen, such as the object moving too far away from the phone or if the sensor is dropped. There isn’t any information as to what type of connection it uses, but Bluetooth would probably be a good guess. Apparently up to 100 individual sensors can be supported by a single app on your phone, and each sensor will have enough power to last for a year and a half! Don’t expect to see this at stores anytime soon, but it’s still something cool to wait for.
