Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. Silent Beacon is out with an updated device for personal safety…that can summon help at the push of a button. Founder Kenny Kelley says the updated Silent Beacon adds a dashboard for use by companies utilizing the devices in the workplace. How does it work?

“What normally happens is you just buy the product or get it shipped from your employer, you would pair it to your smartphone. That takes about ten seconds to do. Once it is done you can set up who it’s going to contact. Your emergency contacts, the emergency phone number. It’s all customizable. Who receives text messages, who receives emails, who receives phone calls, who receives any other form of communication.”

Then…in an emergency…just press the button and the notifications …with your location…go out. There are options for how to wear it…including on your wrist. More info… head to SilentBeacon.com.
