Eliminating forgetfulness and psychological resistance. "Mamosearch," a GPS with an amulet-like cover, supports seniors going out.
In recent years, the demand for "monitoring GPS" has rapidly increased, not only for ensuring children's safety but also for preventing wandering among seniors and confirming their safety when they are out. However, for elderly users, unique operational challenges have existed, such as "forgetting to carry the device" and "feeling resistant to wearing an unfamiliar device."
Against this backdrop, a set product featuring "Mamosearch 3," a monitoring GPS developed by BBSS, bundled with an original amulet-style cover, went on sale on Yahoo! Shopping starting February 6, 2026.
A Design to Eliminate Resistance and Foster Habitual Carrying
The most distinctive feature of the newly released "amulet-style cover" is its approachable appearance. The surface mimics the design of a traditional amulet, while the back displays an icon representing the device. This design lowers the psychological barrier to carrying a "precision instrument" like a GPS tracker, making it something users can naturally wear daily.
A Design That Combines Practicality
Far from being merely decorative, the cover's practical aspects have been carefully considered for elderly users.
Spacious Design
With a gusset of approximately 20mm, the cover smoothly accommodates the "Mamosearch" unit, which is 15mm thick. It also allows for the inclusion of a note with emergency contact information inside, serving as a safeguard in emergencies.
Simple Attachment Method
Using the included strap, the device can be easily secured to items used daily when going out, such as bags or a walker. This significantly reduces the risk of forgetting or losing the device.
The Proven Monitoring Service: Mamosearch
The underlying "Mamosearch" service allows users to check the real-time location and movement history via a smartphone app. Having already received high market recognition, including the "My Best Award 2024 Kids Category Grand Prize" as a children's GPS, this technology has now been adapted for elderly support.
