Wearable technology for the red meat processing industry

This report documents the results of an investigation to determine if red meat processing facilities would benefit from the use of wearable technologies.

Wearable technologies offer the ability to sense, autonomously interpret and communicate information in a portable and unobtrusive manner. These traits make it possible to exploit a worker’s proximity, location and/or perspective in order to acquire new information about the worker, the product and/or processes in real time at every step in the supply chain.
