FATIGUE MONITORING
ReadiWatch from Fatigue Science is the only wearable that avoids the need for a smartphone altogether
the growing ecosystem of wearables compatible with the Readi Fatigue Management Information System , and FS says it is the first smartwatch designed and purpose-built for industrial fatigue risk management , delivering on a wide array of long-standing customer needs in mining and related sectors .
Offline Fatigue Alerts is foremost among ReadiWatch ’ s industrial features , and the complete experience is on the wrist . “ After a single automatic background sync when in proximity of a sync station or smartphone , operators receive both personal sleep insights and a Fatigue Forecast for the upcoming shift . Operators report for duty prepared for the shift ahead with a complete picture of their fatigue risk . ReadiWatch then delivers vibrating wrist alerts when an operator approaches or reaches critical fatigue .”
“ Delivering simple , actionable fatigue awareness to operators is just one core pillar of a multi-faceted fatigue management strategy . Our industrial customers strongly recognise how a well-managed , data-centric fatigue management system can increase productivity and safety . That ’ s why they rely on Readi ’ s full suite of solutions to engage leadership , operations , supervisors , and operators . ReadiWatch addresses operators directly , providing unrivaled fatigue awareness on a daily basis ,” says Andrew Morden , President & CEO of Fatigue Science .
Beyond Fatigue Alerts , ReadiWatch is designed to meet the requirements of industrial workflows . ReadiSync , a proprietary passive sync station technology , eliminates the need for operators to pair or sync their device with a smartphone - a critical request from many customers , particularly in the rapidly growing Latin American market . “ While Readi supports a wide ecosystem of 3rd party devices , like those from Fitbit and Garmin , ReadiWatch is the only wearable that avoids the need for a smartphone altogether . While smartphone use is also supported , a smartphone-free setup is a real differentiator for many of our customers in Latin America and throughout much of the world ,” says Robert Higdon , SVP of Product & Marketing at Fatigue Science .
“ As with its predecessor , ReadiBand , ReadiWatch offers best-in-class sleep tracking , with 92 % validated accuracy as compared to a sleep lab . Additionally , it provides ATM 3.0 water resistance and industrial grade durability , all in a device about 40 % lighter than typical consumer smartwatches for maximal comfort during sleeping . With 14-day battery life , roughly three times that of most competitors , it is designed for users to ‘ wear it and forget it .’ Native Spanish support , an array of fitness tracking features , powerful data privacy infrastructure ( sleep data remains private ), and a more competitive cost than most smartwatches , complete an unrivalled offering for heavy industry .”
“ We ’ ve already seen customers achieve over a 20 % reduction in overall fatigue levels by using wearables on the Readi platform , with 80 %+ of chronically fatigued operators sustaining improvements over time .
