It is human nature to be insatiable. When we are presented with a new innovation, we eventually get tired of it and look for something more. This is the same mentality that developers and other industries have for them to keep on searching and developing new ideas to make our lives better on all aspects.
In the earlier times, we have been amazed at the ability of having caller ID. This is a feature that is available to both mobile phones and hard phones. This is where the caller's phone number will appear in a small screen on your handset for you to be able to identify them. This was also a good way to be able to identify prank callers and have a good basis on which your callers are. While this is a great feature that most people are using until present times, there is still the disadvantage of not knowing where that person who is calling you is. This is one of the reasons that phone tracking was developed and was made available to people like us.
Phone tracking gives us the benefit of being able to know where someone is by using their mobile phones as a means to find out. Mobile phones of recent models are equipped with GPS or global positioning system chips that make it efficient to be traced. In a nutshell, the networks use these chips that are traced by means of satellite positioning. It uses the signals from cell towers and antennas to be able to determine the precise location of the person. This is an advantage especially for people who are constantly worried about their loved ones particularly when they are away or if they are suffering from medical conditions and would need to be instantly found in the event of an emergency.
