Safety Technology
Orange is offering a complete product, which includes an SOS (emergency) band with a SIM card along with the service in the form of applications for mobile devices. Using the application, the guardian can monitor the status, check health parameters, and access more functions. Orange says the SOS band was developed based on its requirements and has passed Orange Labs certification.
SOS bands can be purchased in all Orange Polska stores and online, while in select stores, customers can even test the device before buying. Describing the SOS Band, Orange Poland says it looks like a regular band but will be helpful in increasing safety for users in need. Users using the band have an SOS button, while the guardian monitoring will receive a notification in case of a fall as the band has a fall sensor.
Comprehensive Health Monitoring
The band can be used to perform remote measurements of the most important vital signs, including blood pressure, temperature, pulse, and saturation. Additional features include designating safety zones, locating a person with GPS accuracy, calling the person using the SOS band with the built-in SIM card, and more features.
