First Claim
Patent Images
1. A tracking device comprising:
- a housing containing circuitry for detecting and communicating a location of the tracking device;
a mounting strap that is connected to the housing and that is configured in size and shape for being securely wrapped around and mounted to a part of a person wearing the tracking device;
a first hardened metal band that is affixed to a first side of the mounting strap and which provides reinforcing support to the mounting strap; and
a cut resistant material that is configured to at least resist cutting by a saw, the cut resistant material being positioned directly against the first hardened band.

17. A tracking device comprising:
-
a housing; tracking and monitoring circuitry for detecting a location of the tracking device; communication circuitry for wirelessly communicating the location of the tracking device to a remote monitoring system, the tracking and monitoring circuitry and the communication circuitry being connected to the housing; a primary mounting strap that is connected to the housing and that is configured in size and shape for being wrapped around an ankle of a person and for securely mounting the tracking device to the person; at least one sub-strap that is composed of a different material than the primary mounting strap, the at least one sub-strap being composed of a material that is harder to sever with a cutting instrument than a material of the primary mounting strap; and a layer of cut resistant material comprising at least one of a woven material, a knitted material, a fiber stranded material, a mesh material or stacked sheets. - View Dependent Claims (18)
