Mumbai Police will be the first organisation in the world to get a technology driven device that can remotely keep a check on the health of its Personnel during the COVID-19 pandemic and all thanks to Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar.
The Khiladi Kumar donated 1000 GOQii Vital 3.0 wrist bands to Mumbai Police which comes with sensors to detect COVID-19 Symptoms at an early stage.
Akshay, who is the brand ambassador of GOQii, has taken this step to keep Mumbai Police safe in this Corona crisis. GOQii Wrist Band has been build to track vitals like Body Temperature, Heart Rate, Blood Pressure & Sleep while keeping a check on each step count and calories.
GOQii has partnered with German health tech startup Thryve to conduct a clinical study for the early detection of COVID-19 infections based on data collected by Vital 3.0. Combined usage of the detection algorithm and the GOQii Vital 3.0 Wrist Band can help in isolating potential COVID-19 patients and preventing further spread.
Vishal Gondal, Founder & CEO, GOQii said, “We are seeing the evolution of the Internet of Health, Integration of Wearables + Coaches/Doctors + Machine Learning into a preventive ecosystem will lead to better health outcomes. Governments, Hospitals, Schools, BPOs, Insurance, Banking, Ride-sharing, Food delivery, E-Commerce & Logistics companies around the world are in talks with us to use the GOQii Vital 3.0. Combined usage of the detection algorithm and the GOQii Vital 3.0 Smart Band can help significantly in isolating potential COVID-19 patients and preventing further spread. We are confident that the clinical study will show positive results in predicting COVID-19 infection.”
Friedrich Lämmel, CEO, Thryve said, “We are happy to partner with GOQii in their endeavour to create a preventive healthcare ecosystem and be the front runners to bring about a revolution in early detection of the COVID- 19 virus.”
“Wearable devices provide valuable data that can be translated into actionable health insights by our advanced algorithms,” he added.
In India, the device will be made available in phases. On an immediate basis, frontline workers, government & private enterprises and some units will be available for the public.
