“We Know Where You Are” 0
A Virginia Beach company is working on a GPS tracker that can be shot at and stuck to a car fleeing the police from a gun mounted behind the grill of the police cruiser. The idea is to render high-speed chases superfluous.
The StarChase system fires a GPS “bullet” that sticks to a suspect’s vehicle and transmits its location. Respess shows clients how the system works in a demonstration vehicle.
The story says that the prototype is the size of a soup can and accurate up to two car-lengths away, which doesn’t seem like much, but it’s just a start.
