Glasgow-based firm Safe Shores Monitoring (SSM) has recently launched Companion, an app that offers integrated, cross platform internet of things connected by SSM’s Police Preferred Specification Archangel cloud service to its state-of-the-art alarm receiving centre in Dunoon.

 

SSM says the app, which is part of an £800,000 investment, is a pioneering product that increases the safety and security of lone workers.

 

Explaining how it works, the company said the app “delivers the most advanced man-down detection system available… combining sensor data with advanced algorithms to validate genuine situations of jeopardy”.

 

Tom Morton, chief executive of the firm, which offers location-based safety systems for more than 150 UK organisations, said: “Companion has features that aren’t available elsewhere on the market and we are excited to make it available to our new and existing clients.”
