No more lost lives at sea

Dimeq AS is a technology company based on the west coast of Norway, where our main purpose is to bring the new era of digital HSE and disrupt the maritime industry with our breakthrough technology.

Dimeq has developeda breakthrough technology that gives multiple advantages and enables real-time positioning of personnel in a steel environment in a way that has never been seen before.

The advantages of this technology open a new world for digitalizing maritime HSE never possible in the past.

It will create a more safe, secure and reliable working environment for maritime crew in all types of vessels and ships. It will prevent and/or minimize MOB (man overboard) situations to end in fatalities or severe injuries.

It will assist during all other emergency situations by providing improved awareness and information on the bridge, allowing senior staff to manage their officers and situations more effectively, quickly and easily than old methods.

We also provide integration to third-party systems and integration towards IoT. Our wristbands can function as key and restrict areas for unauthorized users. It can function as a payment method for cruise ships and other public embarkations.

Users are safer and won’t be forgotten if they fall overboard, are lost in a fire or unconscious. We are giving the bridge and officers a full view of personnel onboard during alarms, and if there are any issues they can be assisted.

Muster stations can be stressful in large vessels/platforms for the people in charge, but with our screens and system, it's just about getting to your muster station. The bridge will see who is on the muster station and who is missing, while any crew members that are in the wrong muster will receive a message directing them to their right position.

Fire alarms or blackouts are all controlled and the technology will support the teams and bridge to ensure better performance during alarms. We know for a fact that things at sea can get horrific, and acting a few seconds faster can be the difference between life and death.

It would overturn a very well-established regime

The technology can also be controlled from a mobile app, where you can see your loved ones from your phone and control their payments and other parameters if needed – similar to the user experience on a cruise ship.

We focus on safety as our priority, but the breakthrough technology also allows us to enhance user experience onboard cruise ships, with several useful functions in our first version of the wristband called EyeD-1. Cruise passengers can enjoy shopping, casinos, drinking at the swimming pool, and so many other life experiences with no worries using our wristbands.

Further versions like our EyeD-2 will come with an LCD screen and allow two-way communications. It will also help passengers to find the closest exit from your current position, and in smoky or dark areas where people can find themselves lost with no visibility, the wristband will show the user, via arrows, their closest exit or muster station.

In our last version EyeD-3, this will be our most advanced and personal wearable for our users. It will be our portable personal health assistant, capable of monitoring heart rate, temperature, pressure and more. Our goal as mentioned is to save lives and allow our users return home as they left. With that, we will monitor their health via our wristband, and send any emergency they shall experience, directly to the medic’s PC, tablet or phone, so he/she can respond rapidly with efficient action and equipment to save the life of passengers and workers.

Not only are the wristbands state-of-the-art when it comes to sensors and functions, but the size, the design, and performance are far ahead from competitors. Our EyeD-1 can be used for six months non-stop without having to replace the wristband. In normal conditions faced by offshore workers or cruise ships, the wristband has a lifespan of over a year. The weight and size are small, user-friendly and users won’t notice they have them on, as the main purpose is to wear it 24/7 for their safety. Embodied in a silicon wrist, our tech will also allow costs to be close to a pair of safety gloves or goggles, so it will not be something you should worry about losing or breaking.

Clients can decide the areas to be monitored and how intense they want it to be. The sensors are to be installed directly on the power supply (in cabins, corridors, etc.) that they choose. It’s a plug & play installation, apart from our server and other components that are the base for the sensors and networking. We will have dedicated personnel for QC the installation, and a support in-situ and remotely for our clients. We are committed to creating the most reliable safety system for the maritime industry.

A post report and analysis of the emergencies can be submitted to clients per request. We manage, study and analyze the data created by our wristbands, to improve maritime HSE and report it to our clients so they can take action and improve their operations or installations. Data is the value of tomorrow, and we are the first ones to create this type of data.
