Gear Diary iSmartAlarm Puts Your iPhone in Charge of Security photo

We stopped by their booth at CES and they were kind enough to give us a quick rundown on how the iSmartAlarm will work:

They are currently seeking funding through IndieGoGo, so be sure to take advantage of the pre-order pricing (the company assures us they are using IndieGoGo to gauge preorders, and orders will be shipped even if they don’t hit their funding goal.)
