Case Studies

Houston, Texas – Smart Safety in Construction Zones

A construction firm used smart shoes across its project sites to monitor worker fatigue and fall incidents. Real-time alerts allowed for rapid emergency response, reducing injury rates by 33%. 

Chicago, Illinois – Assisted Living Movement Monitoring

Smart shoes were deployed in an assisted living facility to monitor residents’ walking patterns and detect instability. Staff were alerted immediately when movement data suggested a risk, improving response speed and preventing several fall-related injuries. 

Toronto, Ontario – Campus Navigation for Special Needs

A special needs institution implemented smart shoes for students with mobility impairments. Real-time tracking and step analysis enabled staff to provide better support and route optimization for safe movement throughout campus.
