Basically BluCop is a dirt cheap radio controlled portable theft detection
solution.
More precisely BluCop is a mobile software that can be executed on most of the
Bluetooth capable smart phones (Java MIDP 2.0, CLDC 1.1 and JSR-82 required).
BluCop uses the communication cost free Bluetooth technology to periodically
check the availability of previously selected Bluetooth devices - so called
markers - in the surrounding area. BluCop raises the alarm if it does not
receive a life sign response of the currently checked marker within a
configurable time. As Bluetooth is a short range communication technology, the
alert is issued whenever the checked marker gets too far from BluCop. This
distance is depending on your mobile, the selected Bluetooth device and the
environment. Actually it is between 3 feet (1m) and 100 feet (30m). This means
that if your BluCop protected property is stolen or left somewhere, you will be
notified almost immediately.
After installation you need to perform a quick, free of charge registration to
activate the trial period. You can activate the software online from your phone
or indirectly via the (

Later you can buy the product if you are satisfied.
