About
Kinetic is a company developing wearable devices to reduce costly musculoskeletal injuries of material handling workers ($70bn/year). These workers are often expected to lift hundreds of boxes an hour, some weighing up to 70lbs. They're industrial athletes, but receive no training or support like regular athletes do. So they get injured, a lot. Our product can measure the risk of injury of a worker based on their lifting posture and activity, and provides feedback to the worker as well as actionable insights to the safety manager on how to reduce that risk.
