Here is how the App and Wearable Tags work

AppWearable Tag

1. Setup the dashboard and install the app

HR Manager

Sends the email invitation to all employees and configures the dashboard

Employees

Employee installs the OkDetect app, once they are verified and authenticated.

2. Social Distancing Alert

Once the OkDetect app is installed, it will start to anonymously detect other employees using OkDetect.

If the HR Manager has set any specific criteria during the configuration, only the contacts violating these will be recorded.

3. Contact Tracing in Action

Step 1

Employees install the app, and it will run in the background while they are in the workplace.

Step 2

Employees violate the social distancing policy set by the organisation.

Step 3

The phone vibrates with the proximity alert to maintain a safe distance.

4. Alerts

The employees are marked as infected either by the HR manager or the employees can self report the test results via the OkDetect App.

Broadcast Alerts

HR Manager uses the HR Portal to send broadcast alerts to all the employees. e.g. Office at 60% capacity, if you can please work remotely.

Exposure Alerts

Employees receive an exposure alert via the OkDetect app. OkDetect detects if the employee has been in contact with another employee who has been tested positive within the last 14 days.

5. Self-reporting

HR Manager

Configures the self reporting questionnaire via the HR Portal and decides on the required frequency of reporting.

Questionnaire

The questionnaire is displayed in the app and the employees are requested to self report symptoms.

Employee

Reports whether they have tested positive & if they are experiencing any symptoms.

6. Employee Status

HR Manager can set the employee status logic using parameters such as contact tracing, exposure & self-reporting results.

The app will automatically update the data and keep the employees updated of their health status.

1. Linking & Assessment

01. Active Tag

Using the OkDetect app, an active tag is linked to a specific employee by scanning the QR code on the tag.

02. Organization owned device

Linking can be done before an employee enters the workspace and over any employee’s information field (e.g. ID, email address). The employee doesn’t need to download the mobile app.

03. Questionnaire

Following linking, authorised personnel can fill out the screening customized questionnaires (temperature, status, etc)

2. Detection

The active tags are turned ON and they start detection of all the nearby contacts. Detection happens without user intervention.

For each contact event, tags store other tag IDs, timestamp of the contact, and its duration. Thousands of contacts can be stored.

Social Distancing Alert

The active tags are capable of providing social distance alerts to the user via LED, sound or vibration. Parameters for defining a contact (distance and elapsed time) can be configured.

3. Upload contacts to the Backend

While the employee exits the workplace, stored contacts are uploaded to the backend via a smartphone or a gateway device.

Gateways are capable of connecting tens of active tags and upload data within seconds.

The gateways are setup at the designated exit points off the workplace.

Uploading via a smartphone provides flexibility, while the project is on the move in different locations (remote shoots).

4. Analytics & Alerting system

The OkDetect dashboard provides analytical representation of contact data (who has been in contact, duration of contact, timestamp of the contact), assessment reports (temperature, symptoms, etc.) and eventual employees who have been exposed.

The dashboard can alert respective personnel (e.g. Head of Production, Production Manager) via email about who has been exposed, tested positive etc. Each employee can be given a daily status (Amber, Green, Red) via configurable policy logic.
