Given that these devices work on Bluetooth, they have to be fairly close for detection. That can be up to 100 yards if in line of sight. Obstacles of any sort reduce the range. Because there are hundreds of million detection devices out there they work well in an urban environment like airports. The usefulness out in the field is very limited unless your field is crowded with iPhone carrying hunters.
