Google and Microsoft are competing for top market positions with web-applications (Google Maps and MS Bing Maps, Google YouTube and Bing Video), and cell phone operating systems (Google’s Android and Microsoft’s MS Mobile – both trying to catch up to Apple’s iPhone).
All three companies are looking at business models that can leverage a convergence of their assets (maps, videos and cell phones) to create barriers to leaving once a consumer has tied themselves technologically to a particular company.
These companies are exploring for business models that allow their applications and services to be deployed into new markets.
We have a market that consist of over 240 million users who have a need that hasn’t been met, and this is only in the US. Our solution will operate in every country with developed cellular networks.
Back in September, we submitted this idea to the New Ideas SC Competition and on Nov. 3rd we learned of the results at the Innovation Summit in Charleston, SC.
We won the 2010 New Ideas South Carolina Competition for Information Technology & Software!
We have been busy specing out the application and searching for IT companies who could effectively and rapidly buildout and support our applications. We chose After10Studios and we are currently in the process of building out the iPhone version and the web-application.
What is this award winning idea?
We are developing a cell phone and web-application that will allow the public observing a 911 emergency of any type to live-stream a video from their cell phone of the incident to our secure website.
In order to view the live-stream video from the observer at the scene, the 911 dispatch office will be watching our mapping application via the internet. They will see when a video is available when a color locator point shows up on the Google Map indicating where a video is being shot from anywhere in the world.
The 911 dispatcher (or other public safety or security office) will click on the color point of interest to see the demographic information provided by the GPS of the phone and the video itself.
So what do we call this new app?
Why the name Guardian Watch?
That brings us to the core of our business model. You see, the technical capabilities to live-stream video has been around for as long as we have had smartphones. The problem is no one has figured out the deployment strategy to engage the public and get them into the process of assisting our public safety organizations well before they actually need to call 911 for themselves.
This formula is all based on highly effective branding, marketing and communications between stakeholders.
This is our "Secret Sauce" and one you and the rest of the world will learn about during our launch in late March 2011.
While we develop the applications, we are in the throws of raising further funding from family and friends as well as Angel Investors.
If you are interested in learning more, please accept the terms of the mutual NDA below and you will gain access to the business opportunity.
Sincerely,
Gordon
