Project


Custodium soluciones y sistemas is a young company founded in Zaragoza at the end of 2013.

Initially we developed a tracking device based on GPS technology and mobile networks produced in Spain. The device help Alzheimer’s patients to solve the problems of loss and disorientation.

We base our design on open hardware developments: Arduino and Futura Elettronica SIM908 board, used to create a first functional prototype. After completing the tests with this prototype we launched the manufacture of first serie in Spain, we sell the units to developers and service companies.

Paying attention to design and thinking about ergonomics to Alzheimer’s patients, we reduced the size to a minimum while maintaining low costs, we made the operation automatic and unassisted for relatives and carers only have to turn on the device and place it on the clothes of the sick, so also we made it wearable, leading to the first GPS tracking solution that meets all these features in one product in the world.
