Case Study: Kinetic improves workplace safety with Digi IoT solutions

Kinetic reduces workplace injuries by 58% with Digi International

Kinetic, a company creating workplace wearables, faced the challenge of reducing costly and frequent worker injuries caused by poor posture and unsafe movements in industrial settings. They partnered with vendor Digi International, utilizing the Digi ConnectCore 6UL single board computer, to build a solution that would provide real-time feedback to workers.

Digi International's technology formed the core of Kinetic's REFLEX device, a wearable that detects high-risk postures and vibrates to alert workers. The solution also provided managers with safety analytics. This implementation, powered by Digi, helped Kinetic's customers reduce injury rates by 58%, cut lost work days by 88%, and lower claims costs by 54%. Additionally, added contact tracing features reduced time spent on tracing by 50%.
