An emergency mobile application has just hit the global network as Red Lantern International Limited has found a way to provide emergency services through a single platform that is accessible worldwide.
The technical service company launched the application, Laser Global, with various innovative features emphasising on safety, speed, security and information.
The application offers online emergency services such as a distress call labelled “SOS” that when tapped, alerts and provides personal details including blood group to the users’ personal emergency contacts. The application allows users to register five preferred emergency contacts on their account which could include friends and family. This makes response at emergency situations quicker.
In addition to this, Red Lantern International Limited also created a feature on the application that lets users receive traffic and security updates surrounding their location.

The news feed keeps users in the know of possible security threats through different news articles provided by different media platforms like Arisetv, CNN, etc.
Most recently, a new feature was added to the application that lets users access contacts of emergency operatives in their country and other countries in order to alert authorities quicker should their personal emergency contacts delay to respond.
“This innovative thinking in a time of large insecurity in the nation will go a long way to protect users of this application and is intended to send a ripple effect in the industry for more applications like Laser Global to be created,” said Adebesin Adewunmi, CEO of Red Lantern International Limited.
“It is a major tool that will be exploited by tourists with security concerns. With the tracking feature provided, movement is monitored and SOS is easily accessible. Employers of expatriates and foreign companies are most certainly in luck when it comes to providing security measures for their employees,” Adewunmi said.
The six-month-old application features other elements like “Emergency Locations” which allow users to identify names and contact information of nearest hospitals, police stations and fire stations in an event of emergency.
It also allows personal emergency contacts to track users’ location periodically and it indicates when there has been a relocation.
The developers’ aim is to assure the users that in incidents like brutality, accident, fire outbreak, robbery or kidnapping, they can manage themselves effectively by getting the help that they need quickly.
Although the application is still evolving and new features are being added to suit purpose, developers are positive that it can do the work it was created for, setting technology on an amplified stage to improve security worldwide.
