React Mobile unveils new 2.0 software upgrade

At HITEC Dallas this week, React Mobile unveiled version 2.0 of its workforce safety platform designed to deliver panic button reliability and beacon location accuracy. 

React Mobile 2.0 features:

  • Silent Alarm: React Mobile 2.0 triggers a silent alarm that brings help without alerting others that a response is coming.
  • Verifiable Dispatch: Once the silent alarm on the panic button has been pressed a light begins flashing red. In less than one second (when a responder receives the alert) the flashing light turns blue, acknowledging to the employee in distress that help is on the way.
  • Confidential System: React Mobile 2.0 prevents panic buttons from being triggered erroneously. By changing the button press pattern false positive alerts are prevented. React Mobile 2.0 also complies with Collective Bargaining Agreements that protect employees from being tracked on a property when not in danger, thereby saving panic button battery life and honoring employee privacy.
  • Instant Activation: A dispatcher is immediately notified upon alarm. 

Key Features

  • A new responder application that will enable employees to receive safety alert notifications on their mobile devices and dispatch help. Management will receive analytics measuring how long it took for the employee to respond to an active alert.
  • Support for all third-party iBeacons, such as Aruba, Cisco Meraki, and CommScope/Ruckus. With iBeacon functionality already existing in the hotel’s Wi-Fi access points, hoteliers will save up to 90 percent of workforce safety platform install costs.
  • A new, highly sensitive machine-learning back end to greatly increase location accuracy.
  • A double-redundant alert pipeline to ensure that alerts are dispatched from panic buttons to responders in the fastest time possible. React Mobile 2.0 delivers 99.9 percent of alerts in less than a half-second.
  • Single-press LTE buttons to check battery life and identify coverage problems.
  • Two-way multi-lingual conversations in English, Spanish, French and Chinese. Any language can be supported on request.
  • Single sign-on authentication from existing employee email and password.
  • Regional operations whereby housekeepers and responders working at multiple properties can use React Mobile 2.0 across the enterprise.
