Satellite-Powered Compass Keeps Festival Friends Connected

Stay Connected Without Cell Service: The Totem Compass Solves Festival Friend-Finding Woes Finding friends in a sea of people at a music festival can be a nightmare. Cell service often fails under the strain of massive crowds, leaving attendees stranded and separated. But a new device, the Totem Compass, promises to revolutionize the experience. In a recent video demonstration at EDC, a user showed how the compass uses satellite technology and a peer-to-peer mesh network to pinpoint the location of friends, even without cell service or Wi-Fi. "It works without any cell service or wifi," says the presenter in the video, showcasing the device's ability to locate friends across a large festival ground. Each friend is assigned a unique color light on the compass, making it simple to find your group. While the initial price point is $69 per unit, bulk purchases for groups offer discounts. The Totem Compass represents a significant technological leap for event attendees, offering a reliable solution to a persistent problem.
