Worker Safety and Monitoring, Location Tracking, SOS Aerts , Two-way calls for Faster Incident Response, and Incident Audit Reports
Project Highlights
- Lone worker monitoring in remote or hazardous sites is crucial as workers face challenges like poor connectivity, environmental risks, and delayed emergency aid, increasing injury and fatality risks beyond the scope of traditional safety methods.
- The core idea behind developing the lone worker safety solution was to ensure continuous, real-time protection despite adverse conditions. The system uses a rugged SOS fob device securely attached to the worker’s belt or uniform, ensuring hands-free operation and continuous connectivity throughout the shift.
- To address these challenges, PsiBorg began with a comprehensive hazard and task risk assessment for lone workers. The solution integrates smart IoT features like GPS/GNSS tracking, restricted-zone alerts, and SOS functionality with multi-network connectivity for uninterrupted protection.
- PsiBorg engineered an end-to-end IoT lone worker safety solution ecosystem integrating GPS-enabled wearables with a centralized cloud dashboard and mobile app for real-time monitoring and emergency coordination. The platform also logs incident data, generates compliance reports, and supports ESG-driven safety audits.
About the Project
Employees working alone in hazardous or remote locations face higher risks from accidents, delayed help, and poor connectivity. Studies show lone workers account for nearly 20% of workplace fatalities globally.
The project’s motive was to create a system that continuously monitors lone workers’ safety through advanced sensors and real-time alerts, addressing connectivity gaps and enabling faster incident response. This approach aims to reduce fatal injuries and improve worker confidence in isolated conditions
Our Innovative Solution
- PsiBorg delivered a comprehensive Lone Worker Safety solution ecosystem built around a rugged SOS Fob device and a centralized cloud-based dashboard.
- The compact Fob, worn on the worker’s belt or uniform, features 4G SIM-based connectivity, GPS tracking, SOS panic button, a man-down alert, and fall detection to ensure continuous real-time visibility and instant emergency alerts.
- Deployment involved on-site installation of wearables customized to various worker roles, integrated with cloud dashboards and mobile apps. Supervisors access an intuitive platform displaying live worker locations, no motion detection, Alerts history and worker check-in alerts, all aggregated for continuous 24/7 safety monitoring.
This end-to-end solution transforms lone worker safety by ensuring continuous oversight, instant communication, and proactive incident management in any environment.
What We Delivered
Cloud-Based Multi-User Dashboard and Mobile App
SOS Fob Device
Features
1
Real-Time Location Tracking
Continuous GPS tracking provides precise, real-time geolocation data, ensuring supervisors have accurate worker positioning at all times, critical in remote or complex environments.
2
Panic Button for Immediate SOS
Wearable panic buttons allow workers to manually send distress signals quickly, activating immediate alerts with location details to control centers to expedite rescue efforts.
3
No Motion and Fall Detection
Advanced accelerometers and gyroscopes detect falls or inactivity instantly, triggering automated alerts to supervisors, enabling fast emergency response even when the worker cannot manually signal for help.
4
Two-Way Communication
Integrated voice communication enables direct contact between lone workers and supervisors, ensuring clarification of emergencies and providing reassurance or instructions during incidents.
5
Worker check-in alerts
Automated check-in reminders confirm worker safety during shifts; missed check-ins trigger alerts, ensuring prompt verification and response in case of inactivity or potential emergencies.

Projects Challenges
Ensuring reliable communication in remote and low-signal environments was a significant challenge, requiring the integration of multi-network solutions including cellular and satellite to maintain continuous monitoring without blind spots.
Developing a system that accurately detects emergencies such as falls or No motion while minimizing false alarms demanded sophisticated sensor calibration to differentiate true incidents from routine worker motion.
Balancing safety features with wearable fob device ergonomics and user-friendliness posed design challenges to ensure worker compliance, comfort, and seamless adoption across diverse hazardous work conditions.
