"The Smart Mat": Safety While Working With Machinery
New York, NY, January 6, 2017 (Newswire.com) - The Smart Mat is a safety and anti-fatigue mat designed to be used in conjunction with heavy machinery. It features a weight sensor grid to monitor the user's weight and shut down the machine if it detects any sudden additional weight over 20 pounds. It is designed to provide an automatic shut off to prevent accidents and injury should the machine's operator be surprisingly approached. Also, incorporated anti fatigue technology will help relieve stress and fatigue for users who operate these machines for hours at a time.
The Smart Mat would be “smart” in that it will take a simple, comfortable rubber floor mat and incorporate sensor technology that will sync with the machine tool that it is placed in front of. The color of the mat could be made in black, or in bright orange or yellow, both well-known hues signifying safety. The Smart Mat is a clever and creative product, and will highly improve safety conditions when working with dangerous, heavy machinery. The Smart Mat will provide an additional advantage. It will provide anti fatigue matting that is perfect for use when you must stand working at a machine for several hours at a time. You will have better circulation and less fatigue with The Smart Mat, since it will insulate the feet and legs from hard surfaces, cold floors, vibrations, moisture, and sound. Televised test marketing has recently been completed indicating strong consumer interest in the Smart Mat.
The Patent Pending Smart Mat was invented by Charles and Joan Hall of Mercerville, NJ who said, “The idea for this was conceived while working on a piece of equipment at my home, and I was startled by someone who walked up behind me. I thought there should be some sort of safety shut off in this circumstance.”
