Hardhat Wearables launches Localized Collaboration for Safer Remote Worksites at Enterprise Connect
Summary
Hardhat Wearables a division of Priologic Software Inc. (https://priologic.com) is launching a localized collaboration platform for teams working on remote logging, oil and gas, construction and utilities worksites often with little or no Internet connectivity. The Hardhat Connect system consists of a local ruggedized collaboration server that is mounted in the crew truck or portable trailer with network gear that can penetrate buildings or forests. Priologic teamed with Iotatel Inc. who produce a wifi system that delivers high speed connectivity in the dense coastal rainforests of British Columbia. Doug Pelton, CEO of Priologic says, "The Iotatel team was referred to us by FPInnovations.ca to deliver localized internet in the forests of British Columbia. By far the largest number of accidents happen during the first year of work, so excellent communication between a new worker and a supervisor or safety officer is critical," says Pelton.
