Exploring the future of workplace safety with Stanley and The BBC One Show
Stanley recently had the opportunity to film a segment for The BBC One Show, highlighting the transformative impact of AI technology on workplace safety in the UK. The piece, set to air in the coming weeks, showcases two distinct site locations where Stanley’s innovative exoskeleton technology is being utilised to enhance employee safety and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).
Clarendon House Care Home: Enhancing Carer Safety with Exoskeletons
The first location featured in the segment is Clarendon House Care Home in Coventry. Here, carers are employing a state-of-the-art exoskeleton designed to alleviate the physical strain associated with their demanding roles. This technology is specifically aimed at reducing the risk of MSDs, providing crucial support to carers as they assist residents with mobility and daily tasks. By integrating this exoskeleton into their routine, carers at Clarendon House can perform their duties with significantly less risk of injury, ensuring a safer and more efficient working environment.
German Autowerks: Supporting Mechanics with Advanced Exoskeletons
The second filming location is German Autowerks in Kimbolton, where a team of specialist mechanics are utilising another type of exoskeleton to support their work underneath vehicles. This technology is particularly beneficial in reducing the physical toll on mechanics who often find themselves in awkward and strenuous positions for extended periods. By providing essential support to their upper bodies, these exoskeletons help mechanics at German Autowerks perform their tasks more comfortably and safely, enhancing both productivity and well-being.
Personalised Solutions with WearHealth Diagnostic Tool
Both businesses incorporated WearHealth, a diagnostic tool that helps determine the most suitable exosuit for their specific needs. This personalised approach ensures that each exoskeleton is tailored to the unique demands of the workplace, maximizing the benefits for the users.
BBC’s Matt Allwright Experiences Cutting-Edge Exoskeleton Technology
During the filming, Matt Allwright, a broadcaster and journalist from the BBC, had the chance to try on a couple of exoskeletons himself. He expressed his admiration for the immediate support they provided, highlighting the potential of this technology to revolutionise workplace safety across various industries.
