Epicore’s Connected Hydration Wearable
Featured by National Geographic, Epicore Biosystems is revolutionizing heat safety with Connected Hydration™. This solution uniquely tracks sweat electrolyte and fluid loss in real-time, triggering proactive dehydration alerts at critical thresholds (~500 mL fluid loss and ~2% body-mass loss), before heat-related symptoms impact cognitive function and productivity.
Personalized, Proactive Protection
Unlike one-size-fits-all strategies, Epicore acknowledges individual variability—ensuring each worker receives personalized, data-driven hydration insights. National Geographic emphasizes this technology’s potential to dramatically reduce heat injuries and improve worker well-being.
