Crucial health and contact information for cruise passengers can be accessed by authorised people as part of an enhancement to SafeMate by its developers.
Unveiled at Cruise3sixty late last month, the device requires a pax to have a linked keycard on their person or wearing a wristband.
Approved users of the SafeMate app can then access vital details from onboard or off the ship in the event of an emergency.
It is designed for information to be available to first responders to increase accuracy of diagnosis and improve rescue responses times.
