IoT Connect Podcast – Enhancing Safety through IoT: MetAlert’s Innovative Life Saving Solutions
Thanks for tuning into the IoT Connect, a podcast dedicated to highlighting innovative trends and solutions in the IoT space, recently featured a fascinating discussion with Patrick Bertagna, CEO of MetAlert. Your don’t want to miss this episode where we cover MetAlert’s groundbreaking Smart Soles and Gun Alert products that are helping to keep communities safe around the world.
Revolutionizing Gun Security
Gun safety remains a paramount concern, particularly in preventing tragedies like school shootings and suicide. MetAlert’s Gun Alert solution introduces an innovative answer to firearm security. But what exactly makes it stand out?
The Gun Alert is a “three-in-one” security device. It combines a steel cable lock, a motion sensor, and GPS cellular connectivity to provide comprehensive protection. Should a firearm be moved or tampered with, the device instantly notifies the owner via a mobile app, allowing them to track the weapon’s location. This solution aims to offer a critical pause that can avert potential violence or tragedy.
Privacy and security are key pillars behind Gun Alert’s vision. Partnering with TEAL ensures an added layer of encryption and data protection, as TEAL’s eSIMs are US-built and GSMA certified. This partnership prioritizes the privacy of firearm owners by ensuring that data never remains on MetAlert’s servers, aligning with stringent privacy requirements, particularly for government contracts and partnerships.
Extending the Reach with Smart Soles
Not just confined to firearm security, MetAlert’s scope spans to healthcare innovations with their Smart Soles product. Smart Soles cater to individuals with cognitive memory disorders such as Alzheimer’s, dementia, and autism. These smart insoles are designed to assist in tracking and caring for those who are vulnerable by offering location-based data to caregivers and families.
The widespread use of Smart Soles across more than 40 countries demonstrates the critical need for IoT solutions in healthcare. Through TEAL’s ability to steer global connectivity, MetAlert harnesses this cutting-edge technology to ensure seamless operation across different telecommunications networks worldwide.
Commitment to Social Responsibility
MetAlert’s dedication to social impact is also evident in its collaborations with organizations like the American Legion for veteran suicide prevention. Gun Alert’s notification system extends to alert a veteran’s support network, preventing potential tragedies by enabling timely intervention.
Moreover, by offering promotional discounts to American Legion members, law enforcement, veterans, and first responders, MetAlert underscores its commitment to these communities. Currently, there’s a notable 40% discount on both Smart Soles and Gun Alert products until Christmas.
Patrick Bertagna’s discussion on IoT Connect highlighted MetAlert’s transformative solutions that address some of the most pressing challenges today—firearm safety and cognitive care. By leveraging strategic partnerships and advocating for privacy, security, and American-built technology, MetAlert and TEAL set a robust framework for future innovations in IoT.
