Australian start-up company eHat is developing a network-enabled safety hard hat for field workers. Called the eHat, the hard hat includes a built-in video and audio system that transmits live feeds that can be viewed back at the office by a technical expert. The user of the eHat can make conference calls to the company’s own experts or trainers and problems can therefore be solved quickly, without the need for a site visit.
The system also allows users to record video showing what the worker has been doing, which can show evidence that a task has been completed.
Suitable for use by workers out in the field, the hat is designed to make it easier for users to share issues with senior management in order to get problems resolved more quickly.
A working prototype is due to be completed by the end of the year, with first sales expected early next year.
