You are used to hearing about how GPS tracking can be used to prevent theft, improve productivity and keep family members safe. But you should know that there are an array of recreational uses for GPS tracking as well. It is not all serious. You can have fun with this technology, too.
Case in point, earlier this month, participants in the Race the Lobster event made use to GPS tracking devices to enhance the excitement surrounding the race. This race does not involve actually lobsters (although that would be interesting). It is an international unicycle event in which teams from around the globe race over a five day period.
With GPS tracking devices, it was possible to track and map the racers in real time. This way people all over the world were able to watch the race on the web. The family and friends of race participants who could not attend were still able to keep track of the racers as the traveled over the 800 kilometer stretch of the race.
There are GPS tracking devices that you can use to keep track of your own family, friends, employees and teens in real time as well. Hopefully, they are not racing through the streets, but if they are, you will know. Some tracking devices give you information in real time, while others list you download information once someone has stopped driving.
