Working together on smart wearables

“Industrial companies are capturing incredible amounts of data about their physical assets. This gives companies unprecedented opportunities to improve workflows,” says Davide Vassallo, global managing director for DuPont Sustainable Solutions. “‘Smart’ PPE is the next phase of the digital transformation.” 

Saikat Dey, Guardhat co-founder and CEO, says, “We combine advanced internet-based technology with dependable PPE to create a 3D, holistic view of every user’s work environment. This allows us to actively predict and prevent workplace accidents.”

The wearables provide real-time hazard alerts to employees and supervisors, while the data allows DSS to advise companies on how to adapt their safety management systems to the risks their employees face. Further information at: http://bit.ly/iDSS-EU.
