International enthusiasm for the new generation electronic monitoring bracelet

May 3, 2016 (MMD Newswire) — The Swiss high-tech company Geosatis that develops and produces totally innovative electronic monitoring bracelets has aroused worldwide interest, particularly since the signing this Friday 29 April of a contract with a major European country and the arrival of one of the leading French industrialists in its capital. The question of the management of prisoners on parole is more topical than ever with the widespread overloading of prisons and the importance of the prevention of recidivism and radicalisation in the prison environment.

The electronic bracelet developed by Geosatis is stronger than the current model and has the advantage that it can be located in real time and contains an intelligent monitoring system. “With our solution, all activities, travel and principal movements can be recorded. Immediate alerts are triggered if the software recognises a suspicious situation or a risky change of behaviour”, explains José Demetrio, the co-founder and managing director of Geosatis.

South Africa has already opted for the Swiss electronic bracelet system (2014). In addition, Geosatis recently advanced to the final of the Prix Strategis which rewards the most innovative companies in Switzerland. Another powerful argument is that the neutrality of the country of origin of Geosatis is also an advantage in convincing future customers of the confidentiality and security of the data exchanged.

Countries are not the only ones to be convinced as inmates appreciate the characteristics of this bracelet which is discreet, lightweight and easy to live with. Fully exploiting the capabilities of new technologies and current telecommunications, a system for victims has even been added to the bracelet. In this way, a compact device also developed by Geosatis keeps the victim of violence safe by preventing any meeting with their attacker.

In the coming months, discussions with other European countries as well as North and South America will be initiated. The first reactions suggest that many countries will use this opportunity to find the real solution to their security issues.

Geosatis is currently looking for investors to accelerate its international growth and support this social evolution.

Interviews can be organised and images are available to the international media.
