Wearable technologies are gaining traction in the workplace. These smart, IoT devices have been popular in fields such as clinical medicine, health and wellness, and scientific research for some time. But last year, COVID-19 brought the topic to the forefront for many organizations as they investigated options for managing a safe work environment during a pandemic.  Some advanced manufacturing and logistics companies are beginning to adopt wearables, and many are finding broader potential for data and analytics to improve worker health, safety, and productivity.

Conexus Indiana’s Emerging Technology Showcase is a series highlighting specific Smart Manufacturing solutions or programs that offer a value proposition to advanced manufacturing and logistics (AML) industries.

Conexus Indiana qualifies featured technologies or programs to be commercially launched while still early-stage. The intent is to give Indiana-based AML companies exposure and direct access to credible resources that offer a competitive advantage prior to its widespread adoption.
