Watcher Enterprises B.V. designs and develops GPS-enabled smartwatches for children under the brand name Kidswatcher, aiming to provide parents with peace of mind. The core product is a small GPS watch that communicates with a companion mobile application, allowing parents to track their child's location in real-time. The technology utilizes a combination of GPRS, GSM, SMS, and WiFi to ensure functionality both indoors and outdoors across most countries.
The watches are designed to be appealing to children in the 5-10 age range, with various designs available. Key features include GPS tracking, a built-in phone for making and receiving calls from pre-approved contacts, a discreet microphone for monitoring the child's surroundings, and an SOS button for emergencies. The devices also offer a "class mode" to prevent distractions during school hours. The business model appears to be centered on the direct sale of these hardware devices to parents concerned about their children's safety in public spaces like parks, shopping centers, or airports.
The Kidswatcher was initially launched on Kickstarter in 2014 to secure funding for its product. The company operates in the growing market for children's wearable technology, which balances the need for connectivity and safety with parental control.
