SolePower is launching SmartBoots, a remote management platform for real time location and safety on dangerous and dynamic worksites. With SmartBoots, industrial and manufacturing sites will be able to reduce incident rates, increase work site visibility, and establish metrics from which workflow and safety improvements can be made. At the core of the system is an Army-tested, patented kinetic charger which uses walking motion to sustainably charge sensors embedded inside the boots. Pilot unit includes GPS, Ultra Wideband, RFID, IMUs, Sub-GHz RF, thermocouple, Wifi, altimeter and LEDs. SolePower's technology has the functionality of multiple stand-alone wearables combined into a single, compact, self-charged platform. SolePower partners include SR Max, a leading safety footwear provider, and the US Army.
