BrickHouse Finds Jesus, Thwarts Manger-Raiders With Free GPS Tracking

Baby Jesus safe in his manger at Saint Ambrose Church

New York, NY, Dec. 1, 2011 — Jesus saves, but who’s saving Jesus? Beleaguered communities and religious institutions across the country have reason to rejoice as BrickHouse Security, a premier supplier of security solutions, announced that it will resurrect its popular “Saving Jesus” program this holiday season.

Nothing crushes the holiday spirit faster than a nativity scene that’s been robbed of its feature attraction. Unfortunately, vandals, thieves and heretics tend to prey with Grinch-like intensity on the displays. Baby Jesus is the most popular target, but Santa figures, elves, reindeer, large menorahs and other holiday symbols often fall victim to kidnappers as well.

BrickHouse Security is determined to help — one holiday display at a time.

For the sixth year in a row, BrickHouse will supply free GPS tracking devices to all qualified institutions and communities that request them. The program has been a revelation. Over 100 organizations have participated in previous years, and this holiday season, hundreds more will be receiving their free GPS trackers during the first week of December.

“The holidays are about helping people,” said Todd Morris, BrickHouse’s CEO. “The theft and vandalism of treasured holiday figures is a problem we can empower communities and congregations to solve. We’re happy to expand the program and help even more people this year.”

Qualified organizations will receive a BrickHouse Spark Nano 3.0 GPS Tracker and use of the company’s powerful monitoring and tracking platform for the entire holiday season, all completely free of charge. Even the shipping is fast and free.

Incredibly compact and easy to use, the Spark Nano GPS Tracker is a rugged, matchbox-sized unit that can be concealed inside or attached to almost anything its owner needs to track. It arrives fully activated, and its 30-day rechargeable battery will last throughout the holidays with no maintenance required.

The Spark Nano’s Geo-Fencing feature means that if Baby Jesus embarks on an unauthorized journey from his manger, the device immediately sends a text or email to the owner’s mobile phone or computer. The owner (or police) can then automatically track the figure’s movement wherever it goes.

Thrill-seekers inclined to take Baby Jesus or other holiday icons for a joy ride change their minds very quickly when they know local law enforcement agents can pinpoint their location seconds after the crime is committed.

“It gives me great pleasure to report that in the history of the Saving Jesus program, no holiday display equipped with a BrickHouse Security GPS tracking system has ever been victimized by thieves,” added Morris, who christened the idea five years ago. “Maybe one day this program won’t be necessary. But until that day comes, BrickHouse will keep doing its part to make the holiday season safer and more festive for everybody.”

Like many institutions across the United States, Saint Ambrose Church of Old Bridge, NJ had its nativity scene repeatedly plundered before signing on as one of the original participants in the Saving Jesus program five years ago. Since then, Baby Jesus has remained safe, sound and protected in his creche.

“Every day, I drive by our church and see our manger,” said Alan Czyzewski, of Saint Ambrose. “Protecting our holiday display — with BrickHouse’s help — makes me feel like we’re doing something special for the whole community.”

How to Participate in the Program
Non-profit organizations interested in Saving Jesus this holiday season can visit BrickHouse Security’s Rental Information Page, where they can apply for participation in the program. Those selected to join will receive a Spark Nano GPS tracker and access to BrickHouse Security’s state-of-the-art monitoring and tracking platform to use throughout the holidays free of charge.

Who’s Watching Over Baby Jesus (and Nativity Scenes) Nationwide?

Three wise churches use free GPS and video surveillance from BrickHouse Security to protect nativity scenes from pilfering; churches and synagogues across the U.S. are invited to participate in this free program

New York, NY (Vocus) December 9, 2009 — Last year, BrickHouse Security offered GPS tracking devices to religious institutions across the country interested in protecting their nativity scenes, Menorahs, and holiday decorations. “We feel great to be able to report 100% success in protecting these cherished items,” said Todd Morris, the company’s CEO. “Still, we are sad that many institutions didn’t know about the program and experienced thefts or vandalism.”

BrickHouse Security is renewing the program this year, adding motion-activated camera surveillance to its arsenal. The company, a provider of safety and security products to consumers, most of the Fortune 500, and major law enforcement agencies, is highlighting the program through three (wise) churches located coast to coast. Each will receive not only a GPS tracker (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/gps-car-tracking-vehicle-logging.html), but also the new Global Watchman remote cellular surveillance (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/cellular-surveillance.html) system. This system instantly captures images when it detects motion, whether in light or complete darkness, and automatically sends them as an alert to a PC or cell phone.

Grahm Memorial Presbyterian Church, located in Coronado, CA, is new to the program. “Last year, we bolted down all of our nativity scene figures,” said Phil Manion, the church Deacon in charge of the nativity scene. “Despite that, Baby Jesus was stolen and other figures were damaged. This year we’ll use GPS tracking and surveillance to catch them in the act and track down these items. The nativity scene means a lot to our congregation, not to mention being expensive to replace, and we’re eager to keep it intact through the holidays.”

The second highlighted church is St. Ambrose in Old Bridge, NJ, a participant in last year’s program. Said church member Alan Czyzewski, “We actually installed the small GPS device in the Jesus figurine. Fortunately, true to the Tale of the Magi, Jesus remained in the manger and out of a cross-town pursuit.”

The third church, representing the program in the Midwest, is St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Glen Ellyn, IL. Said George Smith, the church’s rector, “Our nativity scene was untouched last year, thanks in part to the GPS system. We’re certainly hoping that the prospect of picking up a tracking device diverts any attempts to remove the figures from the nativity scene this year, too.”

About GPS Tracking

GPS tracking (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/gps-car-tracking-vehicle-logging.html) devices are used to locate objects virtually anywhere in the world using satellite technology. Most are small enough to covertly fit inside most everyday objects. Moving or tampering with the object triggers a silent alarm, alerting the owner that the object is mobile. The owner or police can then view the object’s path through a mobile phone or computer wherever it goes.

GPS tracking & GPS Logger (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/gps-car-tracking-vehicle-logging.html) devices are finding their way into many new tracking applications, including organ donor shipments, child safety, vehicles and large equipment recovery, undercover police stakeouts where officers use the panic button to signal distress, and wildlife movement. For example, one BrickHouse Security customer used GPS to track alligators’ movement patterns.

How to Participate

Organizations interested in participating in this program should visit http://blog.brickhousesecurity.com/baby-jesus-gps/ and supply their background and contact information. Those selected to join will receive a free GPS Tracking device to use through the holiday season, and in some cases will also receive a surveillance camera.

“Like our customers, we at BrickHouse Security value the sanctity and harmony of the holiday season. We are happy to be in position to come to the aid of churches, temples, and other organizations looking for a way to protect their community from this crime,” said Mr. Morris. He added: “While we can’t blanket every nativity scene or Menorah, we hope that the potential of GPS tracking (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/livewire-lightninggps-trackingdevice.html) and the examples set by our three highlighted churches is enough to discourage would-be thieves and vandals from putting a damper on the holiday spirit.

We’re Giving Away 15 Child Locators to Families with Quadruplets

This holiday season, we’re giving away 15 Child Locators for the first 15 families with quadruplets who contact us. Do you have quadruplets in your family? Go here to enter, or keep reading below for the full press release.

“Free 4 Kids” Holiday Safety Giveaway

Calling all parents of quadruplets: This holiday season, BrickHouse Security announces giveaway of its popular BrickHouse Child Locator, capable of simultaneously tracking four or more kids

New York, NY (Vocus) — BrickHouse Security, a leading provider of safety and security products to major law enforcement agencies including the NYPD, FBI, and the LA County Sheriffs, announced that it is giving away thousands of dollars worth of Child Locator (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/child-locator.html) systems to parents of quadruplets in its Free 4 Kids promotion.

“Holiday shopping and other trips to crowded places make it especially challenging to keep an eye on one’s kids,” said Todd Morris, BrickHouse Security CEO. “We know from parents children how helpful our Child Locator is to them when they’re shopping or traveling. To help, we’re making an early present to families–and with four tags included who needs help more than parents of quadruplets?” he added.

“The BrickHouse Locator has been huge help to my family,” said customer Jennifer Finger. “Around the holidays when I have to brave the crowds with my small children I’m grateful to have my BrickHouse Child Locator close at hand.”

Capable of Tracking up to 24 Children

The BrickHouse Child Locator, targeted toward parents of smaller children, uses RFID technology to help parents locate their children in malls, airports, playgrounds, and other public places; it also sends an alert should a child stray too far. The BrickHouse Locator system comes with four tracking tags, thus the choice of quadruplets as giveaway recipients. However, the system can support families with a single child, or up to 24 with a purchase of units beyond the four included. For parents of teens and older children, the company also offers GPS tracking (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/gps-car-tracking-vehicle-logging.html) products at http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/gps-car-tracking-vehicle-logging.html

Recently featured in Duracell’s recent “Power to Protect” campaign, the Child Locator is currently available at a special holiday price of $149, marked down from its standard price of $169. Information on the BrickHouse Child Locator (http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/gps-car-tracking-vehicle-logging.html) can be found here: http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/child-locator.html.

Giveaway Entry

To be considered as a recipient of the Free 4 Kids giveaway, parents should visit blog.brickhousesecurity.com/giveaway to upload photos of the quadruplets by Wednesday, December 16th; BrickHouse Security will not publish the photos unless the family is chosen to as a giveaway winner and then not without the parents’ permission.

The company will announce winners after verification via Facebook and Twitter on December 21st.

BrickHouse Security Launches Sales of Amber Alert GPS, A Revolutionary Way to Protect Children

Maker of the BrickHouse Child Locator strengthens its child safety product offerings with the addition of the Amber Alert GPS, a small but powerful personal GPS tracker

New York, NY (Vocus/PRWEB ) October 13, 2009 — BrickHouse Security, a leading provider of safety and security products to major law enforcement agencies including the NYPD, FBI, and the LA County Sheriffs, is expanding its consumer product line with the addition of the Amber Alert GPS (AAGPS).

gI 0 0 unitinhand BrickHouse Security Launches Sales of Amber Alert GPS, A Revolutionary Way to Protect Children

Amber Alert GPS has a small form factor

“We’ve managed to become one of the nation’s top sellers of GPS tracking products,” said Todd Morris, BrickHouse CEO, “but until today we haven’t offered such an easy-to-use yet powerful product to parents.” While the company has sold thousands of GPS tracking devices to more than 500 federal agencies and Fortune 500 clients, its consumer-focused GPS product line has been limited. “The Amber Alert GPS helps us give families a new and easy way to ensure their children are safe and accounted for when they’re away from home,” added Mr. Morris.

The AAGPS complements the company’s BrickHouse Child Locator product that was recently featured in Duracell ads. In contrast to the Locator, which uses GPS technology to alert parents when their child wanders beyond a set distance of up to 600 feet, the AAGPS device enables parents to remotely locate their children when they are away. To use it, parents simply place the device into their child’s personal items such as pockets and backpacks, or they can attach it to a wrist, ankle, or belt. To then locate their child they call or text the AAGPS device, and within seconds receive in return a detailed map and address of the child’s exact location via any text- or web-enabled phone. Alternatively, they can view location updates on their computer.

With more than 2,000 children reported missing on average every day, the Amber Alert GPS is not dependent upon the parent to keep a child safe. Measuring just over an inch across, the stylish device is intentionally designed to not look like a tracking tool should an abductor see it; more important, the AAGPS features an alert “SOS” button that the child can activate to send an emergency signal to his or her parent. For further protection the GPS device can send speed alerts when the child or teen’s vehicle exceeds a preset level, as well as breadcrumbing to leave a retrievable trail of the child’s travels.

The device was developed by Russell Thornton, who experienced the terror of losing a child in an amusement park. Fortunately, he found his child after an extended search–and the determination to help other parents and children. He chose the name “Amber Alert” in reference to Amber Hagerman, a nine-year-old Texas girl who was abducted and murdered. The search for Amber led to the eventual establishment of a notification service for missing children. The AAGPS is not part of the system, but is instead intended to safeguard against situations reaching an alert stage while providing parents with peace of mind in knowing where to find their children.

“We hear stories every day of parents being separated from their children, whether intentionally or accidentally. Said Mr. Morris, “BrickHouse Security is thrilled to be able to offer introduce this new and effective way of preventing abductions and protecting their children.”

The Amber Alert GPS retails for $379 and requires a monthly subscription plan. For the next 30 days BrickHouse Security will be offering Amber Alert GPS for a special introductory price of $279.95.

BrickHouse Security Shatters Remote Surveillance Limitations with the New Cellular-Enabled Global Watchman

Security and surveillance leader announces the launch at ASIS of Global Watchman, with all new features: all-weather, invisible infrared, motion-activated monitoring product that automatically transmits images to computers and phones worldwide.

Anaheim, Calif. (Vocus/PRWEB ) September 21, 2009 — BrickHouse Security, a leading provider of security and surveillance products to more than 500 local and national law enforcement agencies and the majority of Fortune 500 companies, today announced its new Global Watchman monitoring device at the ASIS conference for security professionals. In the past, image-capture monitoring products have been constrained by battery strength, severely limiting the distance over which they could transmit images and shortening their battery life. To overcome this limitation the Global Watchman employs cellular networks to transmit images from its motion-activated camera to a user’s computer or cell phone the moment the image is captured.

“The ability to monitor remote locations from virtually anywhere on the globe turns the surveillance industry on its head,” said Todd Morris, BrickHouse CEO. “This new combination of cellular transmission, extended battery life, invisible infrared illuminators for nightvision capabilities, and all-weather protection provides professionals with capabilities they’ve never before had at their disposal. These capabilities can rewrite current approaches to patrolling remote locations, monitoring warehouses, and keeping an eye on places they wouldn’t otherwise visit for months on end.”

The company chose ASIS 2009 as a venue for launching this important product given its role as the most influential industry event for the 22,000 security professionals expected to attend. Said Mr. Morris, “We’re excited to be exhibiting at ASIS and are certain that the Global Watchman will create quite the buzz here.”

BrickHouse Security is launching the Global Watchman at a discounted price of $599, a price it expects will attract customers beyond government agencies and surveillance professionals. With its ease of use and one-of-a-kind features, businesses and consumers can use it to actively watch their properties for trespassers or thieves, protecting not only their possessions but also their families or employees. Adds Mr. Morris, “I’m sure there are plenty of uses we haven’t even thought of yet.” Groundbreaking product features

Cellular surveillance that requires no cables or local Internet connection
Motion-activated PIR nightvision camera
Images sent via cellular and stored on internal SD card

BHS & GTX Aim to Protect Missing Children with Revolutionary GPS Solutions

GTX Corp and BrickHouse Security Team To Protect the 2,000 Children Reported Missing Daily With GPS Solutions

New iPhone utility App – Code Mobile – from GTX Corp, together with the BrickHouse Child Locator, use the most advanced GPS PLS proximity alert technology to provide protection for children locally and nationally.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — GTX Corp (OTC Bulletin Board: GTXO), a leader in 2-way GPS Personal Location Services (PLS), has partnered with BrickHouse Security to offer products that can assist in the recovery of the 2,000 children reported missing every day. GTX Corp and BrickHouse will be working together to solve safety problems through product development, co-branding and joint marketing of innovative geo-specific and proximity-alerting solutions.

To help keep these children safe locally in busy malls, parks, and even in their own back yard, GTX Corp, through its Code Amber(R) subsidiary has formed a distribution relationship with BrickHouse Security to market the company’s Child Locator, as well as to jointly develop new safety and protection programs. The Child Locator, recently featured in a global media campaign by Duracell batteries, uses GPS technology to monitor the location of wandering children up to 600 feet away using an onscreen display and alert system.

The Child Locator is now available on the Code Amber web site and promoted on the Code Amber News Ticker that is viewed by millions. GTX Corp has expanded its subscriber base for geo-proximate real time information about reported missing children, through placement of its News Ticker on the BHS website and with a new mobile App; Code Mobile< – now available on iPhone, Blackberry and Android platforms.

The Code Amber (R) News Service and the Child Locator have already aided in the recovery of numerous children. “My favorite story is one in which CANS helped recover a child missing from his Arizona home who was later located in a car in a California parking lot of Walgreen’s, a long-standing partner who posted the alert at their stores. Thanks to the cross-state notification, the child was safely returned to his family,” said Bryant Harper, president of Code Amber.

Todd Morris, BrickHouse Security founder and CEO, adds his own story of a happy recovery: Said Mr. Morris, “I recently received a call from a relieved father who brought his child to a major theme park. His child had climbed a structure and moved out of sight and range of his calls. Using the Child Locator he was able to quickly find his child to the relief of the family.” He adds, “Now that we’re working with GTX Corp I’m comforted to know that we can reach further to recover children when they’re separated over longer distances, and I’m sure that many parents will be, too.”

Mr. Bertagna offered, “We are excited about the relationship, since Todd and I met close to a year ago we have been exploring the different opportunities for us to work together. Identifying a company with complementary products and a parallel mission marks the beginning of a profitable and purposeful relationship. I know that together we can help change the headlines from – child found missing, to – missing child found.”

Executrac Turns Blackberry Into GPS

executrac doc pic Executrac Turns Blackberry Into GPS

New York, ASIS NYC April 2009 — BrickHouse Security announced today at the ASIS NYC Security Expo “The Executrac” Mobile GPS Tracking software for Smart Phones; a powerful, invisible application that turns any BlackBerry into a covert GPS Tracker with an emergency panic button. The application is so covert that it can be deployed wirelessly in seconds to thousands of company owned BlackBerrys unbeknownst to the user. Employers now have the power to closely monitor employee productivity and security anywhere in the world.

Journalists And Executives Fear Kidnapping Attempts
Journalists and executives who travel to dangerous areas, often fear kidnapping or other violent crimes. The only chance a remote traveler has is a panic button to secretly send a emergency signal with their exact GPS location to the people they trust to send help. “The Executrac” provides a safety net for international travelers with no additional hardware or training.

Remote Employees Take Advantage Of Freedom Costing Companies Billions
“Companies fear that remote employees such as field reps are stealing time from employers,” explained Todd Morris, CEO BrickHouse Security. “Many of our corporate customers fear they are not getting their money’s worth from field employees who may be on a golf course when they should be working, or worse” This unproductive time costs companies over $795 billion each year.

With “The Executrac” Mobile GPS Tracking software, companies can monitor the precise location of all their field employees from any web browser. “Most employees are issued company BlackBerrys, and with an invisible installation employers can turn these company BlackBerrys into GPS Trackers… with or without the employees knowledge,” explained Todd Morris, CEO of BrickHouse Security.

Covertly Deploy Wirelessly To Thousands Of BlackBerrys
With a fast download or “push installation,” employers can deploy “The Executrac” Mobile GPS Tracker to thousands of company BlackBerrys completely wirelessly and without any intervention by the user.

Invisible Footprint To The User With Web-Based Mapping
“The Executrac” Mobile GPS Tracker software runs invisibly in the background and does not change or affect the phone’s voice or e-mail functionality. Accurate within 5-15 meters, this mobile GPS Tracking software starts tracking withing 9 seconds of being turned on and stays covert to the user by using less than 15% of the BlackBerry’s battery over a 24 hour period. The web-based platform features an integrated Google Earth functionality, making it easy for employers to track employees online no matter where they are in the world.

Features:

Application Runs Invisibly In Background
Custom Panic Button For Emergency Situations
Fast Download – Wirelessly Deploy To Thousands BlackBerrys
Complete History & Reporting
GeoFence Safety Zone Alerts

Dashboard Navigation System Doubles As Covert GPS Tracker: Lets Boss Sit In Passenger Seat

Las Vegas, CTIA April 2009 – Lightning GPS today announced the world’s first ever covert GPS Tracker built into a fully functional touch screen navigation system, at the CTIA Wireless Technology trade show. The “NavGenius” is a covert GPS Tracker that’s incorporated into a standard looking navigation system to monitor a driver’s every move. It even comes with two manuals, one for the user of the car that doesn’t mention any of the tracking features and one for the real driver of this device.

Smarter Than Your Average GPS
An average GPS system such as a Garmin® or TomTom® is the equivalent of a “dumb box,” like a standalone PC that is not connected to the Internet and only does what it is pre-loaded to do. The “NavGenius” is the first true “Smart GPS” also known as “Connected GPS.”

By adding Internet capabilities, the GPS gains the ability to interact with, and be controlled by, other devices and services over the Internet.

Remote Monitoring From The Web
Using a slick web 2.0 online mapping system, users can easily check on a family member or any fleet of vehicles at once in real-time from any computer. Find out if they are where they say they are, or monitor their driving progress and history. Next time a teenager or employee tells you they were late because of traffic you can check yourself to see where they were and how fast they were going. You can even see a report of any unsafe driving behavior such as flooring it off the green-light or slamming on the breaks.

Push Directions Reroute Driver From Any PC
Did you ever want to tell someone where to go? We all know it is far easier to use online mapping from a computer than it is to use a handheld device. Now you can create a complex route or find a location and automatically send the route or location to the driver over the web. They never need to pull over and fiddle with a device or risk an accident while driving. Playing with handheld devices such as cellphones and GPS units while driving is suspected to cause many dangerous crashes.

The Lightning GPS “NavGenius” is designed to replace over $3,000 of older dedicated devices found in most taxis and delivery trucks. The current mess of cables and boxes include dispatch/messaging systems, GPS Tracking devices and standard GPS Navigation units; some even have a laptop for Internet access. By replacing all these expensive boxes with one low cost device under $500 fleet owners can save over $2,000 per vehicle.

“Small business owners are putting a lot of faith into their delivery personnel. In some cases, the image of the company can be tarnished by the actions of a part-time high school driver,” explains Jason Lazarus. “With the “NavGenius” we have given small businesses the power to monitor and control their delivery staff with zero installation and at a fraction of the cost of older systems.” One of the largest regional fleets has already pre-ordered 700 devices for their trucks.

Alerts Via E-mail or SMS Text Messages There are some things you may want to be alerted to instantly such as speeding, or a driver going into a “restricted zone.” With the connected nature of the “NavGenius” you can set rules on the website and get alerts via e-mail or SMS directly to your cell phone. For example, if a vehicle is only allowed to stay within town “A,” and it travels outside town “A” into town “B,” an alert message is immediately sent to the authorized user on that account.

Family Tracking
Many baby boomers are concerned that their teenagers and aging parents may get lost on the road or run into difficulties and need assistance. By including a GPS Tracker built into the navigation system, the “NavGenius” can alert a concerned parent about bad driving behavior or the location of a teen who is out past curfew.

A New Open Platform
Like the iPhone® this is a platform that other companies are building applications for. One OEM is adding the ability to charge credit cards directly with just a small USB swiper. Dozens of apps are under development and thousands of Windows Mobile applications can be installed with little to no modifications. Just like Apple®, Lightning GPS is managing which applications can be loaded on the device. An “app store” is under development and will be announced shortly.
