Rapid Alert Wearable Badge

The staff badge gives staff an easy, reliable way to immediately lock down the building, request help, or receive guidance anywhere on campus with no phone, app, or Wi-Fi required. When a badge button is pressed, it securely sends an alert through nearby beacons and gateways to the Rapid Alert Wearables Cloud. The system instantly identifies who needs help, where they are, and what kind of assistance is required (lockdown, security help, medical help). Built-in lights and vibration let the wearer know the message has been received.

The visitor badge offers a visibly recognizable indicator of individual status as well as a reliable way to request help or receive guidance anywhere on campus with no phone, app, or Wi-Fi required. When the badge button is pressed, it securely sends an alert through nearby beacons and gateways to the Rapid Alert Wearables Cloud. The system instantly identifies who needs help and where they are. Built-in lights and vibration let the wearer know the message has been received. Visitor badges have built in real-time location tracking and can be programmed with time and location restrictions, for notifications to stakeholders when those restrictions have been breached.

Gateways and beacons create the invisible network that make the wearables work. Gateways connect the Rapid Alert wearables and beacons to the Rapid Alert Wearables Cloud. They use both wired (PoE) and wireless (LoRaWAN, LTE) connections for reliability and can be mounted indoors or outdoors to cover the whole campus. Battery powered beacons help determine where a badge is located on campus.
