Making use of facial recognition to authenticate a user, this app by E-Cell, Inc. uses location updates and random picture and video check-ins to monitor selected low and medium risk offenders placed under a house arrest program by the court.

Automatic alerts are generated when the user goes out of designated home and work geo zones or if they do not respond to check-in requests in a timely fashion.

Due to the high cost of correctional services and overcrowding in prisons, this solution is a cost effective and reliable tool used by agents to monitor such offenders.

Note:
Additional sign up is required before you can use this app.
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
