Many fatalities on construction sites are due to falls and related delays in the arrival of emergency services.
Averto is a sturdy and compact IoT-based device worn on the worker’s belt. It detects sudden change in motion and sets off an alarm. This triggers a warning which is sent to a control center along with details of the incident. The efficiency and speed of this technology could mean the difference between life and death for a worker.
