Wearable Health Solution
Summer Hero Clip – For prevention of heatstroke
The Summer Hero Clip is a user-friendly wearable device for the prevention of heatstroke that can be clipped onto hats or sleeves. It predicts the heat index, calculated by measuring the atmospheric temperature and humidity every minute. Once the device detects that the temperature has reached an “extreme caution level”, it alerts the wearer with an alarm sound. If the risk level remains unchanged or stays at a higher level after an hour since the first alarm, a second warning sound will launch. The warnings are aimed at helping users avoid the risk of heatstroke.
