Wearables

The wearable technology market has been growing over the past few years.

It has been growing for several reasons – one of them was the Covid pandemic in 2020/21 and corresponding limitations in the fitness market segment. The other reasons are the rising focus of a significant part of society on sustainable transport and personal health.

Personal safety control is a significant concern among employers.

Not only due to legal items but also with a focus on the valuable human resources and work efficiency. The end customers who invest in the personal safety apps and systems can exchange manual, time-consuming collecting data and safety processes for automated real-time monitoring of the employees.

Within our products and projects, we smartly combine use cases in the real world with the standards of personal health, safety standards, and value for the market. We do not focus only on mandatory certificates.

We care about: 

• the product cost,  
• its sustainability,
• battery lifetime,  
• user experience,  
• potential for extensions and  
• the flexibility of the concept.

We also prove the reliability and robustness of each. Before we embark on the first bespoke prototypes, we prove the concept and test performance. 

We are working tightly with partner companies which are excellent in mobile applications. 

Mobile applications add an extensive user interface to the wearable connectable devices, which are often pretty small and power efficient.

As the world of wearable accessories is developing fast, we learn innovative technologies on a daily basis.

We started a few years ago when we were working for a department of a large world corporation.

Our first project was smart shoes that collect foot behavior data through the sensors placed in the soles.

These shoes monitored the user's safety (e.g., weight and walking style) and sent the values to the Cloud. As for post-processing, machine learning techniques were applied to the collected values to recognize harmful situations, e.g., carrying an overweight package.  

The following project was developing an embedded system for headphones capable of noise reduction and monitoring.  

One of the extraordinary and exciting projects we have participated in was a smart T-shirt with the function of heartbeat, oxygenation, body temperature, and breathing monitoring.
