All about Lynq:

With lynq, up to 12 persons can get connected and this device works for up to 3 miles or longer depending on the outdoors.
A few Features with Lynq:
Besides adding your friends into the its system, the device also allows you to navigate to a home location or base point where all connected lynq devices can point toward and a safe zone that warns you when a person leaves the safe radius.
