As COVID-19 continues to threaten the health and lives of billions of people across the globe, people are urged to continue social distancing, monitoring key health vitals, and adhering to safety measures at school and work. While these measures certainly help, they often fall short, as many people don’t display noticeable COVID symptoms and aren’t aware that anything is wrong. They continue to go about their normal lives, endangering their lives and the lives of others.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to detect if you or others around you have COVID before displaying outward symptoms? Fortunately, there is thanks to Safestrap—the first-ever smartwatch that predicts whether an individual is positive for COVID-19, even if they’re asymptomatic. How exactly does this product work and how can it help society during these unsettling times? That’s exactly what we’ll be covering in this article. Let’s get started.

Monitors COVID-19 symptoms

Safestrap can monitor your health vitals in a way that would be virtually impossible manually. Using artificial intelligence and deep learning, Safestrap monitors the user’s key vitals every ten minutes, checking their temperature, blood oxygen level, respiratory rate, heartbeats per minute, activity, sleep, and cough. The Safezone.ai social gateway actively tunes into the data picked up by Safestrap and passes it to the command center in real-time. If any irregular deviations are recognized, the user is alerted via the watch and urged to quarantine.

Performs contact tracing

Safestrap comes with a built-in contact tracing feature that uses GPS to track COVID-positive suspects. This can be extremely useful in a number of settings. Individuals are notified of those around them who may have a COVID infection. In a work or school setting, employees or students with COVID symptoms can immediately be asked to leave, get a test, and quarantine. In a hospital setting, doctors can be forewarned of the number of potential patients that will be arriving at the hospital to seek treatment. In a government setting, COVID-positive people can be detected and denied entry.

Contract tracing using Safezone.ai technology is infinitely more accurate and effective than when it’s conducted by humans. Why? Contact tracing works best when a disease is detected from its onset. Before Safestrap, this was nearly impossible because a large percentage of those infected have no symptoms. The artificial intelligence and deep learning used in Safestrap offer a solution to this problem by detecting subtle health changes, such as a drop in oxygen level or a cough pattern, that would have otherwise gone unnoticed.

Encourages social distancing

Safestrap also offers built-in social distancing notifications. Whenever a Safestrap user gets too close to other people or those who are suspected to have COVID, the band and the user’s mobile device vibrate to notify them to maintain distance. Because COVID-19 spreads mainly among people who are in close contact (within about six feet), it’s of the utmost importance to keep a safe distance.

The takeaway

Safestrap is a cutting-edge smartwatch that helps individuals, businesses, schools, hospitals, and other organizations protect themselves and others and reduce the spread of COVID-19. With Safestrap as your guardian, you can navigate these challenging times with more confidence, knowledge, peace of mind, and safety.
