Industrial-grade MuSeOn 1.1 wearable device enables real-time
monitoring of working environments for improved safety
Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) has collaborated with ON
Semiconductor and original design manufacturer Geniatech to develop
MuSeOn 1.1, an industrial, proof-of-concept workplace safety
solution.
MuSeOn 1.1 is a Multi-Sensor-Online wearable device based on ON
Semiconductor`s RSL10 Sensor Development Kit. The platform features
RSL10, the industry’s lowest power Bluetooth 5 radio SoC, and
comprises five industrial-grade sensors that can measure, detect
and identify varying environmental conditions. It is integrated
with local wireless and cloud services that enable companies to
monitor working environments in real-time to maintain and improve
safety levels for employees.
In addition to being extremely energy efficient, RSL10 from ON
Semiconductor incorporates an on-board processing core, several
peripherals, integrated power management and large internal
memory.
MuSeOn 1.1 features sensors for air quality, humidity, pressure
and temperature, allowing for recognition of the wearer’s activity,
together with indoor navigation and positioning. There is an
ambient light sensor with wide operating range and an
omnidirectional, stereo digital microphone. MuSeOn 1.1 has a dual
RFID interface and is housed in an IP65-rated case.
Arrow, Geniatech and ON Semiconductor designed the multi-sense
device and its firmware. Arrow also supplies the industrial
gateways based on the Geniatech IoT Developer Board 4 and is
instrumental in the integration with leading cloud platforms.
Combining the powerful data analytic capabilities of these
platforms with the high-quality sensor data and long battery life
of MuSeOn 1.1 creates a highly effective solution for remotely
monitoring and protecting workers with minimal user burden.
Aiden Mitchell, global vice president of IoT at Arrow, said,
“MuSeOn 1.1 provides an end-to-end solution that delivers real-time
insights into workplace conditions. The combination of data
gathered and cloud analytics provided through the Arrow IoT
ecosystem will help to improve workplace safety, drive compliance
with safety policies and help protect workers from risks.”
“Arrow, ON Semiconductor and Geniatech have joined forces to
realize the first industrial-grade low-power multi-sensor platform,
which enables a wide range of commercial applications, such as
worker safety,” said JinJun Fang, CEO of Geniatech. “The solution
helps companies and employees monitor worker safety in real-time
driving compliance with safety policies, and helps protect workers
and assets from risks.”
Wiren Perera, who heads IoT at ON Semiconductor, said, “With a
range of environmental sensors alongside the industry-leading RSL10
radio, we knew the possibilities for the RSL10 Sensor Kit were
nearly endless. We are very excited to see how this platform has
been taken one step closer to users with the MuSeOn 1.1
solution.”
MuSeOn 1.1 is manufactured and designed by Geniatech, and is
exclusively available from Arrow.
