Kramer Launches Corona Tag: A Social Distance Monitoring Device

Published 8th January, 2021

Kramer’s newly launched Bluetooth-based wearable device monitors social distancing in public avenues and the workplace. The device will help avoid site-down shutdowns when an employee gets Covid-19 by identifying the limited number of other staff was exposed.

The device is based on HSL technology. With the help of Bluetooth signals, the distance and exposure time in between tags is calculated. Concerning stringent user privacy requirements, the corona Tag does not save any data such as names and locations visited. This independent device does not rely on any external hardware or communication signals. Due to this self-sufficient quality, there is no need for mobile phones or other connections such as GPRS, Wi-Fi, or GPS. The only information recorded is the other tag’s Physical MAC address and the time spent together in proximity. Information from the tags can only be retrieved by a certified administrator, via a specially designated USB cable.

The Corona Tag does not require any special training to use the administration software. There are no central databases of any encounter created. The device only stores information for two weeks. The battery life lasts up to six months before requiring replacement and the tag is activated automatically with movement, so there is no need to manually power the tag on or off. Implementing this is an easy and cost-effective way to minimize shutdowns while preserving an individual’s privacy.

The compact size means the Corona Tag can easily be attached to a lanyard. Multiple color options and customized logo additions are available to suit corporate branding and identities. Corona Tags are not designed nor intended to prevent, mitigate, eliminate, treat, diagnose or cure any disease or health condition including COVID-19/Coronavirus. Corona Tags are intended for public use, only to monitor social distancing and provide for contract tracing in the workplace, school, and public venues.
