Monitor
Sensors in contact with the skin track biometric signals linked to rising stress.
A reusable, self-inflating vest for people with autism and sensory sensitivities.
The vest monitors the wearer throughout the day and only applies pressure when it’s needed.
Sensors in contact with the skin track biometric signals linked to rising stress.
When stress rises, a built-in compressor fills air bladders inside the vest, applying firm, even pressure similar to a hug.
The vest stays inflated until readings return to baseline or the wearer turns it off, then deflates gradually.
Four design decisions set ProActive apart from weighted and compression vests.
Responsive
Pressure only when it’s needed
Weighted and compression vests apply the same pressure all day. ProActive inflates when it detects rising stress and deflates once readings return to baseline.
Materials
Made for sensitive skin
Soft, skin-friendly materials, chosen with hypersensitive users in mind.
Placement
Placed to feel like a hug
The air bladders are positioned around the torso to recreate the feeling of being hugged.
Caretakers
Updates for caretakers
Caretakers receive notifications when they’re relevant, which helps reduce caregiver stress.
