SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP)—Apple Computer Inc. co-founder Steve Wozniak is turning his creative wheels again.
Make that his Wheels of Zeus Inc.—a Los Gatos, Calif., startup he founded in January 2002 to develop wireless technologies that would be “helpful to peoples everyday lives.” The company, which has been working in stealth mode, announced its management team Monday and unveiled a few product details.
The company hopes to create a wireless network of location-monitoring tags and base stations to help people keep track of pets, children, briefcases, or other wayward things. The network will use a low-power, long-range radio technology—the same 900-megahertz spectrum used on many cordless phones—along with global positioning satellite technologies.
