Factory laborers are always under danger while working in industrial environment. To ensure workers’ safety, workers at Tata Steel came up with the idea to develop safety watches that can provide critical, real-time safety data.

The Tata Group has developed the one-of-its-kind safety watches, especially designed for floor workers in the factory. TCS’s cloud-based analytics supports this technologically advanced watch. Titan will be official manufacturer of the watch.

Critical elements, including worker’s body temperature, pulse rate and excessive gases around him will be detected by digital sensors and analogously displayed on the watch. This retro design watch features a ‘digital heart’ that helps in tracking the worker’s environment. In this way, workers can easily come to know the precautions they need to take to avoid any unhealthy surroundings.

Workers at Tata Steel will soon be using this watch. Tata plans to develop products mainly for digital savvy consumers. The Tata Group is working to boost niche industries like soft robotics, bio-inspired products, stretch sensors, gene editing etc.

Takeaways:

• Tata Group Invents Safety Watches for Factory Workers that displays real time critical data like worker’s body temperature, pulse rate and excessive gases around.
• It is the first safety watch designed for floor workers in industry.
• The watch features a ‘digital heart’ that helps to track the worker’s environment.
