About spacebands
spacebands develops wearable devices that monitor exposure to hazards such as hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS), loud noise, and machine collisions, while also providing real-time alerts and reminders for personal protective equipment (PPE). This technology helps prevent workplace injuries and reduces administrative burdens by collecting near-miss data for safety analytics, all for just £1 per employee per day.
<problem> Workplace accidents and injuries are often caused by exposure to hazards such as hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS), loud noise, machine collisions, and lack of personal protective equipment (PPE). Traditional safety measures rely on manual reporting and training, which can be inconsistent and fail to prevent accidents in real-time. </problem> <solution> spacebands provides a wearable safety solution that monitors worker exposure to multiple hazards and delivers real-time alerts to prevent accidents. The system uses a multi-sensor wearable device to monitor HAVS, noise levels, and proximity to machinery, while also prompting workers to wear required PPE. Data on near misses and exposure levels are uploaded to an analytics dashboard, providing health and safety managers with insights to improve safety protocols and reduce risks. The wearable operates offline and shares recorded data to the reporting dashboard whilst charging. </solution> <features> - Multi-hazard monitoring: Detects HAVS, loud noise, machine-to-person collision risks, and PPE non-compliance - Real-time alerts: Provides immediate warnings to users via vibration, light, and sound when hazards are detected - Proximity detection: Beacons create customizable warning zones around machinery to prevent collisions - PPE prompts: Reminds workers to wear required PPE when entering designated areas - Analytics dashboard: Captures near-miss data and exposure levels to identify areas needing improvement - Customizable settings: Adjustable alert distances, decibel levels, and PPE requirements via a mobile app or dashboard - Offline operation: Wearables function without internet or GPS connectivity - Anonymous data collection: Protects employee privacy while providing holistic exposure measurements </features> <target_audience> The primary customers are health and safety managers in construction, manufacturing, and logistics industries who need to reduce workplace accidents, improve safety compliance, and minimize legal liabilities. </target_audience> <revenue_model> spacebands operates on a subscription model, charging £1 per employee per day for access to the wearable devices, analytics dashboard, and safety features. </revenue_model>
