Project description
A smart garment that protects operators
Work safety is important. Risk that manual labourers face on the job is a major concern for industries. DYNABACK, a company specialised in wearable technology, has developed a smart garment that provides information related to safety during work. The smart garment is fitted with inertial sensors connected to the worker’s smartphone and a cloud network. The system transmits real-time information about the movement of the worker. Made by sustainable materials, it is comfortable enough to be worn throughout the day. The EU-funded Manuback project will promote the smart garment as a safety solution in the manual handling of goods sector. A feasibility study will estimate its efficacy and its market viability.
Objective
DYNABACK delivers wearable technology supporting a healthy lifestyle in everyday life. At the core, a functional garment with an array of inertial sensors. The garment connects with your Smartphone and a cloud service delivering real-time and long term insights about how you move. The garment is developed with sustainable materials and comfort to be worn throughout the day as an undergarment or by itself.
This project aims at deploying the Dynaback garment for Work and Safety in the field of Manual Handling of Goods. A feasibility study will be conducted in order to validate the solution and to further test its accuracy. Furthermore, the project will serve to assess the market viability of the Dynaback product, and to determine the best strategy to market.
