Wiredtaggers

Wiredtaggers are a type of electronic tracking device designed for discreet placement on objects or individuals. These devices are characterized by their small size and often feature a wired connection to a power source or data transmission unit, distinguishing them from entirely wireless or self-contained trackers. The "tagger" aspect refers to their ability to be attached to a target.

The primary function of wiredtaggers is to monitor the location, movement, or status of whatever they are attached to. This can be achieved through various technologies, including GPS, RFID, or cellular triangulation, depending on the specific design and intended application. The wired component typically allows for a more reliable and continuous power supply compared to battery-operated devices, which can be advantageous for long-term monitoring or in situations where frequent battery replacement is impractical.

Applications for wiredtaggers are diverse and can range from asset tracking in logistics and inventory management to surveillance and security purposes. In some industrial settings, they might be used to track tools or equipment. The discreet nature of some wiredtagger designs also lends itself to covert operations or investigations where the presence of a tracker needs to remain undetected. The specific capabilities and limitations of a wiredtagger depend heavily on its internal technology, the length and type of its wiring, and its method of data reporting.
