StrongArm Technologies Founder and CEO Sean Petterson explains how his company is leveraging data to improve efficiency. Petterson says when launching this company, he was focused on human augmentation, and how it can use technology to improve how human beings work.

This data provides a risk profile of individuals, and tracks movement in real time. As a result, the technology can prevent some injuries before they happen. StrongArm Technologies has raised $5 Million in funding to date.
