  Abstract

Technological advancements has offered many solutions to the important current issues such as the growing numbers ofrunaway children, wandering Alzheimer’s patients and lost pets in the society, yet most branches of current technologiesare not capable of encompassingallof these key problems. My researchproposes a solution that is practical, durable and reliable -- a proximity sensor device powered by other users in the area with a process known as “crowdsourcing”, by using their mobile devices as receiving stations of the service, extensively increasing the effectiveness of this service in especially urban and suburban areas where there is a high population density.
