'Evoschool', a comprehensive security app, will now enable the parents and schools to actively monitor the activities of children.
Developed by Evoxyz Technologies, it also provides a real-time location of the bus on the map, the expected time of arrival and ability to accurately monitor the child's movement.
The app sends notifications and alerts, enabling outdoor and indoor location tracking as well as automated attendance.
Providing a transparent platform between the parents and school administration, the app will help in sharing circulars, events, results and assignments, thereby helping the parents to keep an eye on the child's activities and performance at school.
"We are delighted with the turn-out at the conference where many eminent personalities came forward to emphasize the upcoming issue of child safety and security," said Evoxyz Technologies CEO Shilpa Mahna Bhatnagar.
"Through technology platforms such as Evoschool, we can empower and strengthen the country's environment, capability and response time to prevent and protect children from violence, exploitation, abuse, neglect and the effects of conflict," he added.
Rupa Chakravarty, Education Director, Suncity group, on her part said, "While children were once compared to a sapling, which if uprooted to analyse its growth, dies, safety is not a choice anymore, it is a necessity. Kids, today, understand that there is fear in the outside world. Keeping the current crime rate in mind, monitoring children through the use of technology should be seen not as an intrusion in their privacy but as a boon for parents who were otherwise left worrying for their respective child's safety."
"Such apps will also ensure that there is transparency, helping strengthen the parents' faith in the school and its management. I would also like to suggest Evoxyz to create another such application to safeguard other age groups, especially the elderly, who on their own lack the energy and means to protect themselves in times of danger," she added.
Evoxyz Technologies is a Gurgaon-based tech start-up that provides a highly configurable and scalable contextual analytics platform for micro location tracking that can be easily integrated by other solution providers to enable quick development of location based solutions.
