Every year more than 20,000 people have an accident in the outdoor area.

It usually only becomes critical when friends and helpers do not pay attention early enough.

Or not knowing your exact position.

Or no emergency call is possible at all because only 10% of the world is covered by mobile phone networks.


We deliver the missing 90% by satellite.

And draw attention to you early on.

With your exact position.


When does the automatic dead man's switch help?

There are countless situations in which - without A*LIVE SmartSafety - you can no longer trigger an emergency call yourself. Some examples are listed here. And of course whenever you don't have a cell phone network: then only A*LIVE and InReach can establish contact.

  • drift away (e.g. on the open sea)
  • Treeholes (pits in the snow around tree roots)
  • falls of any kind
  • Unconsciousness eg due to a fall, heart attack
  • Unconsciousness eg due to lack of oxygen / too high altitude in aviation
  • Allergic shocks
  • avalanches
  • Severe injury
  • crash
  • and many more.



Activities with SmartSafety profile.

Thats how it works:

Alarm scenarios and security zones are preconfigured and adjusted with a click, alarm addresses for SMS, email, telephone*, API or rescue navigation are stored. SmartSafety profiles for various sports and movement patterns are already available, e.g. for mountain biking, windsurfing, kite surfing, sailing, climbing, skiing, snowboarding, also for lone workers, hunters, etc.

*telephone/satellite communication depending on hardware

The tracker that you carry with you is now a global security tool, SMS/email communicator* and weather service* all in one. Your friends can follow your position live on a private website and, if they wish, they can be informed automatically when you start or end your activity. 100% global*. You will also receive detailed tracking data as a GPX/KML/IGC file, statistics & rankings for competitions (e.g. with live buoys/route control).

*telephone/satellite communication depending on hardware

The SmartSafety dead man's switch runs in the background and checks for possible critical situations such as sudden standstill, crash, drifting off, exceeding height limits, signal interruption, etc. A manual emergency call can also be made at any time and also always contains the exact location. Every emergency call can also be canceled again.

Different notification chains with a 2-level escalation can be created for each scenario (e.g. manual SOS or automatic crash/standstill alarm). Example: First, SmartSafety reports your position via SMS/email to friends and team for companion rescue. At their request or after a timeout without a response, professional rescue services such as mountain rescue services or coast guards (via 112/GEOS) are activated, which may continue to communicate with you or your stored emergency contacts.

ProteGear Lone Worker Protection:

Our lone worker protection is 100% globally usable, without radio gaps with the A*LIVE SMartSafety Tool v2.


Equipped with a position sensor and a choice of fully automatic or manual dead man's control, the control centre or team colleagues can be automatically alerted in case of possible critical situations at an early stage.


In addition, there is an exact rescue navigation that leads to the colleague with the warning alarm.


This can offer maximum safety for all kinds of activities where fast and accurate localisation in emergency situations is crucial.


All advantages at a glance:

  • Self-sufficient system, does not require a smartphone or other third-party devices due to built-in GSM/4G/Iridium radio module.
  • Tailor-made configuration for the most diverse critical situations available with different sensors, whose detection profiles can also be combined.
  •   Motionlessness (via acceleration sensor)
  •   Standstill (via GPS)
  •   Position detection (via gyro sensor)
  •   Vibration (via acceleration sensor)
  •   Zone alarm, also dynamic geofence
  •   Vertical and horizontal speed
  •   Altitude profile (above sea level or topography (AGL) with barometric automatically calibrated altitude measurement
  •   Temperature
  •   Air pressure
  •   Proximity alarm
  • Active and passive dead man's control
  • Automatic configuration change depending on location
  • Distance warning or proximity warning.
  • Individual 2-stage escalation programmable (for own or external rescue control centre)


This is not a PPE, but an additional tool !

Our weather service provider is MetGIS.at with "Ultra high resolution weather forecasts". In practice, the predictions are derived from model grids that have a horizontal resolution of less than 100 m (other providers usually use several km). MetGIS works on a very scientific background, which guarantees high quality. The forecasting techniques were developed over 10 years of work at research institutes, universities and weather services in various countries (Switzerland, Austria, Japan, Peru, Chile, Argentina). Since 2005, information about MetGIS has been presented at more than 20 scientific conferences in 16 countries. About 30 scientific articles on the subject of MetGIS were published in four languages (English, German, Spanish and French).

ProteGear TenderTracking mit Dynamic Geofences

ProteGear VesselTrack is an all-inclusive package of hardware (ALIVE or Garmin InReach Iridium satellite tracker with 100% global coverage) and fully automatic monitoring software with safety automation (e.g. route control, anchor alarm) that runs in the background. In the event of any warnings, it automatically notifies the respective customer or his team via SMS and email - and can also be connected directly ("M2M") to existing systems via Rest-API.


Comparable to AIS MarineTraffic for large fleets, ProteGear VesselTrack is primarily designed for single vessels or small fleets that still want seamless RealTime monitoring, supplemented by communication (SMS & GlobalMail) and SOS functions. Alternatively, the system is also available for pure GSM networks (and thus even cheaper).
