First Segment: iBeat. Ryan Howard, CEO.

The iBeat Heat Watch continuously monitors your heart rate and circulation for anything that appears to be unsafe. We analyze data in real-time to look for potential life-threatening emergencies. If something appears to be off, we ask if you are okay. If you indicate you are not okay or do not respond within ten seconds, our around-the-clock dispatch team will be contacted. Within seconds of an emergency happening, the watch will notify our dispatch team who will send the appropriate help - police, firefighters, paramedics, or even just a loved one - to your exact location. The watch also has an emergency help button that can be pushed at anytime to get you aid. Your designated contacts will receive a call or a text notifying them of your emergency, and an incident page will be made available showing your location, current status, and if you’ve been taken to a hospital or nearby care center. You can choose which of your contacts has access to this information.
