WHO says even people with masks should socially distance*

    But most workers are ignoring distancing guidelines**

So real workplace safety requires more than guidelines

The latest data shows people aren’t social distancing appropriately. As the decision maker for your business, it’s your responsibility to ensure regulatory guidelines are being enforced in your workspace.

FaceFence™ helps enforce social distancing so you don’t have to.

How FaceFence™ Works

\

FaceFence™ alerts when people approach each other closer than approximately six feet away.

\

This entire system couldn’t be more simple: Put it on, turn it on, GO.

\

No apps to download, no base stations, and no technical expertise needed!

\

Habit-reinforcing reminders teach employees to respect proper distancing.

\

Socially difficult situations are simplified by the alert of the device, instead of leaving it up to individuals to enforce safe distancing from their coworkers.

Social Distancing is Hard, FaceFence™  Makes it Easier

FaceFence™ is the most affordable, simple to operate social distancing alert system available.

                                     Use Cases

 

office-space

Make employees comfortable in your space

standing-six-feet-apart

Train staff on “how far away 6′ really is

retail-use-case

Make customers & visitors comfortable in your space

The device is adaptable to most professional and retail environments, whether in a small office setting with only a few employees, or a large warehouse, where keeping appropriate distance can be difficult.

Social distancing can be difficult to estimate and awkward to enforce when left up to an individual’s judgement. FaceFence™  takes the guesswork out of social distancing in the work environment so your employees can focus on what really matters… getting their work done in a safe environment.

If your team shares a front door, a restroom, meeting space, a kitchen, any public space or even just a hallway…you need FaceFence™!

WHY FaceFence™ ?

According to mobile handset position tracking authority Unacast, 34 out of 50 states in the U.S. get a grade of “F” for social distancing, while the remaining 16 states get a grade of “D”.*

The bottom line:

Americans are not socially distancing nearly enough—especially in the workplace.

        The FaceFence™ story: a conversation over dinner

Founder Eric Haseltine and his wife Chris Gilbert

Founder Eric Haseltine is a senior executive with 40 years experience in high tech, including:

  • Chairman of the Board of the US Technology Leadership Council
  • Former Executive Vice President at Walt Disney in charge of Corporate R&D
  • Former Chief Technology Officer of the entire US Intelligence Community
  • Designer of world’s best selling, mass produced Augmented Reality Optical Display, Disney’s Jedi Challenges
  • 51 patents in optics, electro-optics and communications
  • Author of over 200 science articles and 3 books on innovation

As Eric and his wife Chris watched events unfold in March 2020, they brainstormed—over dinner one night— how to use their unique combination of skills to help. 

Acclaimed author of three books on Mind-Body Medicine, writer for PsychologyToday.com and member of Doctors Without Borders, Chris said to her husband:

 You’re a Psychologist and inventor, can you invent something that would help reinforce the right behaviors?

Eric asked:

 What are the most important behaviors we need to reinforce?

 Chris thought out loud:

 Well, you and I can’t do much to get people to stay at home or wear masks, but maybe we could come up with something simple that helps people break habits, such as getting too close to each other, or maybe touching their nose, mouth and eyes all the time.

 After mulling that over for a few minutes, Eric said:

 I think I could adapt some inexpensive optical technology that would kill two birds with one stone: alert people when they’re closer than 6 feet, and also when they’re about to touch their face. It would be like telling the virus; GET OUT OF MY FACE!  You know, kind of a virtual optical face fence.”

 Chris laughed:

 Well, I like the name Face Fence, but I think you should focus on one behavior at a time. The most important is helping people keep safe distances. Can you focus on that first?

 Eric smiled:

 I think I can have a prototype ready for you to try tomorrow. Would that be soon enough?

 And FaceFence,™  designed and manufactured in the USA, was born.
