The devices, which are small enough to be kept in a pocket, purse or backpack, allows the user to create electronic "fences" that will send the primary user a notification if one of the devices leaves a specific geographic zone. The devices also can track the speed of vehicles to make sure a family member is driving at a particular speed, a release said.
