EUREKA TOURISM is a European strategic initiative launched within the EUREKA programme and led by Spain, oriented to the sustainable improvement of tourism, leisure and cultural sectors. The objective is the definition of the main lines of technological development and the generation of R&D projects that as a result would set up products, processes or innovative services with technological basis and a commercial interest.

Oriented to public and private entities, EUREKA TOURISM is a real European network for technological innovations in the tourist sector.

TCHILD: Tracking CHILDren system

Objectives
The purpose of this project is to develop an innovative tracking system (indoors and outdoors) to increase the safety of children. This system will allow parents or guardians to be more careless of their children surveillance, and thus to enjoy more of their time. The system will be applied on beaches, resorts, malls, theme parks, etc. The technology that we will use in this project is Near Field Communications (NFC). It is the upcoming new technology in new mobiles, and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a mesh of autonomous devices distributed in the space which can incorporate sensors and actuators that monitor and control any environment. This project will be included in the EUREKA project the “21st Century Hotel Eureka project” to increase the impact and the visibility of the project.

Description
The TCHILD system will identify the area where the children are moving without carrying a large device. A wrist unit will be built with a durable, light and comfortable material for the children, and this wrist unit will have a safety lock to avoid that the children can remove it.

Consortium
