A trackstick is an easy, inexpensive way to use a tracker enabled with GPS technology. They provide passive tracking, which is a way to tell where someone has gone, and not where they are currently going. The Trackstick II can be used for more light-weight, less intense tracking because it provides a virtual tour of the tracking on your computer screen, which can be convenient for usages such as recording travel history or creating a private album of places you’ve visited.
