POD-enabled movement intelligence

See the whole person,not one isolated signal.

GoX combines POD-based kinematic context with wearable, environmental, and activity signals to support a broader view of operational risk. REBA/RULA-informed ergonomic review can sit alongside fatigue, heat, cardiovascular load, movement, and environmental context so teams can evaluate the work and the worker together.

GoX POD kinematicsREBA / RULA contextFatigue + exertionHeat + environmentMovement patternsWhole-person review
01 / ObserveCapture movement in context.

The GoX POD adds body-positioned kinematic information to watch, activity, and environmental signals.

02 / CombineBring the risk picture together.

Ergonomic, physiological, movement, and environmental context can be reviewed in one operational frame.

03 / InterveneSupport earlier action.

Teams can use the combined context to inform job, equipment, pacing, hydration, rest, and coaching decisions.

Educational operational context, not diagnosis or guaranteed injury prevention. Confirm the approved REBA/RULA method, scoring workflow, and POD configuration for each deployment.

Safety / Hearing conservation

Noise-exposure awareness

Know the exposure.Act earlier.

GoX brings noise-exposure screening to a familiar wrist endpoint, helping workers and safety teams see sound level, accumulated exposure, and run time in the context of a broader hearing conservation program.

01Measure

Capture configured sound-level and exposure context.

02Guide

Give the worker a clear, immediate signal on the watch.

03Improve

Connect trends to controls, protection, and follow-up.

01 / Edge

Clear signals on the body.

Watch-based haptic guidance and simple status context support heat, fatigue, dehydration, readiness, Mandown, fall, no-motion, and SOS workflows.

02 / Common operating picture

ATAK-integrated leader visibility.

Live tracking, breadcrumbs, individual drill-down, geofence events, and ATAK incidents bring human signals into an established operational view.

03 / Alert and response

Real-time risk context for intervention.

Operator alerts can connect with dashboard, SMS, email, and leader workflows so teams can follow established check-in and response protocols.

04 / Connectivity and control

Built for intermittent communications.

Wi-Fi, cellular, local-radio upload, and SATCOM architecture can support deployment-specific data paths, with MDM, encrypted on-watch storage, HTTPS transport, and optional VPN.

About GoX Labs

Built by people who measured first.

GoX Labs was co-founded by Joe Hitt and Bruce Floersheim, two service-disabled Army officers who taught at the U.S. Military Academy and built careers around wearable robotics, engineering, and human performance.

The company grew from work connecting biomechanics laboratories to people operating in the field. Today, GoX applies that same measurement discipline to safety, wellness, emergency response, and productivity.
