A Japanese phone company has come up with a new technology that can track most minimal movement of mobile phone users and beams the information back to HQ.
KDDI Corporation, which has developed the technology, intends to offer the service to clients such as managers, foremen and employment agencies, or whoever may be interested keeping in check the activities of their employees.
The new system uses analytical software to detect more complex behaviour, unlike sensor systems. The software is held on a server back at base, to match patterns of common movements. Because this technology will make central monitoring possible with workers at several different locations, businesses especially are very interested in using such technology to improve the efficiency of their workers.
But there will surely be negative consequences when applied to employee tracking or salesforce optimization.
