Hi, I am wondering if this is gps tracking or just a standards Id microchip, as I was reading an article on mr tracking and it states that this gps

Standard microchip. Once scanned, a number appears. You must register the number in your name so when the company is called and given the pet's microchip number, the company will have your contact information that you give them.

No, GPS systems show only the location of the receiver - they don't "track" people or objects. What you're asking about is called a "PLB" or Personal Locator Beacon, such as this http://www.amazon.com/ACR-Terrafix-406-Gps-Rebate/dp/B001JQ0C20/ or http://www.amazon.com/McMurdo-82-826-004A-Fastfind-Personal-Locator/dp/B000EFAT98/. However, these devices require activation by the user, so they still don't function exactly like you're asking. Now then, "Lojack" does make a product for tracking "at risk" people, such as Alzheimer's patients: http://www.locatorsystemscorp.com/ , but I'm going to assume your brother isn't in that category.

I already had caller ID when Ibought this, so not sure. I bought it so I could monitor OUTGOING calls (time call was made and time length of call), because it tracks that as well, whereas standard modern phones do not. Will do this on any phone jack in the house, so if you have one not being used, nobody will notice this device.

This is a charger. so if your GPS is dead and your near a window I guess you could say its in the loop. However it has nothing to do with actually programing the GPS.

This is a small rice sized chip you or your vet will need to inject into your dog. You must register it after that. If you do no register this it has no effect if the dog would be found. This can not track your dog down. I'm not aware of any chips that have a gps/tracking feature.

It is just a microchip. If it had GPS technology ALL dogs/cats/pets would be found.

I have no idea why this information would be needed. I am a user of the device, not a technical expert. Mine works fine for its intended purpose. That is all I can comment on.

I have no idea how they determine your location though it probably gps . Inany case, you cannot track someone else using one, only the company can track the user. Hope that helps

I have all Garmin electronics on my boat and it has been reliable for many years. If Garmin advertises that the device has a G force detector and a working GPS to not only time stamp the device but with a location than their device has it. I do not understand how other non branded devices can be trusted. I bought it for security reasons and so I wanted a reliable brand.

I think that it's not OK that all it says on the box is "free traffic" instead of "free traffic with ads." I don't quite feel fully-informed by Garmin. I'm thinking seriously about returning my unit just because I don't like being treated like that.

I believe it is whether it has GPS or not. Which one I am not sure. On ordering, make sure the ad list it has GPS.

I received just the small USB dongle chip which works great syncing my Garmin Forerunner GPS watch. I hope that helps, please let me know if you have further questions.

Good morning! I am apologize to inform you that I have never used it for that is particular function. However, the GPS function is astonishing! It has been used all through the US and South America with no problem! I hope this helps!

They aren't GPS tags- the most you could probably do is have it set to trigger an alarm if it was removed from the NFC tag

I believe the "i" is for internal gps vs external. Ideally, you want a external gps and not the internal. You want the gps puck as close to the transducer as possible to get the most accurate gps points. What shows up on your screen is what the transducer has already scanned, if your unit has the internal, when you mark your point, it will be off by the distance your gps is from what's been scanned by the transducer. Hope that helps!

I believe a strong cell signal is somewhat important. I have just recently installed the Android app for tracking and have tested it while I walk around my neighborhood. Usually it works and shows the position. In a couple of spots it doesn't. This leads me to believe the cell signal is not getting through. My opinion of this device has gone up since I started using the android app recently. It works better than the online web page tracking.
