Track the Body, Not the Box
Technology can not replace in-person interaction and unannounced visits between supervising officers and offenders. However, reliable technologically-advanced Global Positioning System (GPS)-based monitoring offers an effective tool that enhances the ability of supervising officers to better manage their offender caseload and available resources. BluTag® is the one-piece GPS device that equips supervising officers with the most effective, proven and reliable monitoring system.
Never-Removed GPS Device Equates to Higher Level of Offender Accountability
BluTag® was developed on the premise that the best offender monitoring requires the equipment to remain securely attached to the body at all times — not dependent on the offender remembering to carry at least one component. The receiver and transmitter in multi-piece GPS monitoring devices are housed in separate units, and the receiver is removed to recharge the battery and/or transmit monitoring data. When this unit is removed, an offender’s movements are not tracked or recorded.
Convenient and Mobile Battery Recharging
Offenders must complete one task every day: recharge the battery. With the shortest recharge period in the industry, BluTag’s® battery is fully charged in 30 minutes or less, once every 12-14 hours. Multi-piece devices can restrict activities for up to eight hours a day, which inconveniences the offender as he or she works toward successfully re-integrating into the community. BluTag’s® charging coupler plugs into any standard AC electrical outlet allowing offenders to recharge the battery in locations other than their home.
Fewer Damaged or Lost Devices
Unlike multi-piece devices, BluTag® is not prone to damage by dropping because it remains securely attached to an offender’s ankle at all times.
Easily Managed Inventory
A supervising agency’s on-site inventory is streamlined with BluTag® and a few consumable items and optional accessories.
