Hand Held Tracking Device (HHTD)

How many times have you lost your backpack? Your Flash drive? Or some other essential device? The HHTD takes care of this. Now, you have only to apply a small adhesive to the item, and you will be able to track it from within a distance of 2 km.

How it Works

An adhesive transmitter is placed on the tracked object. A small amount of radioactive isotope is sealed within the adhesive, surrounded by a material that gives out a specific frequency wave when being bombarded with beta radiation. This frequency is picked up on by the handhold receptor, which uses an arrow to point the user in the proper direction, with the estimated distance on the arrow. The receptor can handle up to three different transmissions on the same frequency. Currently, five different frequency transmitters are available, although hundreds will soon be available.

Significance

No longer will humanity have to wast precious time searching for lost items! The uses of the HHTD are limited only by one's imagination! It can be used by anyone from soldiers to soccer moms! Truly, this is a device rivaling toilet paper in it's necessity.
