LG announces the KizOn, a wearable device for children.
The KizOn is about delivering peace of mind to the parents more than anything else. The KizOn uses a combination of Wi-Fi and GPS to provide parents with realtime location data. Parents can call the KizOn from their smartphones to talk to their children.
If 10 calls are made with no answer, the device will automatically pick up the eleventh call and allow the parents to listen to what’s going on around the KizOn. The KizOn can place calls to one preprogrammed number.
LG Kizon specs:
- 64MB RAM
- 125MB RAM
- 400 mAh battery (36 hours life)
- Battery alerts at 25% left
- 2G/3G Network
- Comes in Blue, Pink, and Green
LG said the KizOn will debut in Korea on July 10, followed by North America and Europe later this year. No info on pricing yet.
