Telecare service providers are showing increasing interest in new mobile telecare solutions that are better suited for certain user groups. Incumbents such as Philips Lifeline, Tunstall and Doro have in recent time launched new products in this category. Many start-ups are further entering the market with new innovative solutions, mainly in the form of wearables. Over time, mobile telecare devices are likely to replace conventional telecare systems among seniors as the devices become more attractive and better suited to their increasingly mobile lifestyles. The number of active mobile telecare systems in Europe and North America grew to over 500,000 in 2016.
People locator solutions addressing the needs of businesses are available from companies in industries such as fleet and asset tracking, as well as IT and specialist vendors. Mobile workforce management applications enable workers to report time, collect data in the field, access back-office information and communicate with managers. It is estimated that the market for mobile workforce management software in Europe and North America amounted to 1.35 billion (US$ 1.49 billion) in 2016. Moreover, a growing number of countries are adopting regulations that specifically address the safety of lone workers. Lone worker protection services primarily focus on ensuring the security of employees. The market for lone worker devices and services in Europe and North America reached 120 million (US$ 130 million) in 2016.
Electronic monitoring (EM) of offenders is still relatively rare in the context of European and North American corrections systems. EM is used to provide alternative ways of sentencing offenders and reduce the escalating costs for the corrective systems. EM is employed at various stages of the criminal justice system, including at pre-trial, at sentencing and following a period of incarceration. The use of GPS technology in EM programmes has grown rapidly in North America in recent years and is starting to gain ground in Europe. The average daily caseload of monitored individuals in Europe and North America amounted to approximately 180,000 in 2016.
