P.F.O. (http://www.pfoinc.com/)
PFO started in 2008 when Johan Carlsson set out to find something to help his three soon-to-be teenage girls stay safe. He envisioned a nice bracelet with a silent alarm and GPS positioning. But everything out there was either very ugly or didn’t work. So with a mission to make the world a safer place, and the help of world-class designers Stefan Sagmeister and Oscar Magnuson, the Protective Fashion Object was born. Concealed in a tough-looking cuff that shouts Don’t mess with me!, is GPS and GSM technology that alerts the wearer’s pre-chosen friends or family with her exact position on a map.
