LAS VEGAS, CES 2013 – Globatrac is showing off a nifty little device at CES that you simply slip into your luggage on the plane to let it notify you if your bags have successfully arrived with you.

The Trakdot communicates with either an iPhone or Android app, as well as SMS to tell you the status of your luggage when traveling. It also integrates Bluetooth technology to tell you if your bag is getting closer to you or if someone is walking off with it.

Globatrac hopes to have the Trakdot available at the end of March for $49.95.
