Triax Technologies, Inc., also known as Triax, is a Connecticut-based technology company that develops and delivers IoT technology for the construction, oil & gas, energy, and heavy industrial industries. It is the company's mission to transform the most challenging work environments and industries through intelligent, innovative technology and real-time data collection and analytics to make worksites run safer, faster and smarter.

Triax's headquarters are located in Norwalk, Connecticut with a Product Development office in East Hartford, Connecticut.

Spot-r by Triax

Triax's flagship Spot-r platform elevates worksite visibility, safety, security and risk, connecting workers, equipment and operations through a scalable, minimal infrastructure network, wearable and sensor devices, and a cloud-based dashboard. By providing real-time, data-driven visibility into site access, worker and equipment location, manpower, safety incidents, and evacuation and muster procedures, Spot-r enables actionable insights, helping firms streamline processes and work safer and smarter.

Spot-r's wearable device, known as the Spot-r Clip, is worn by each worker and automatically connects to the Spot-r network on site to provide real-time worker location and safety data. A push-button on the wearable device allows workers to report unsafe conditions, site hazards or other potential injuries in real-time without leaving their work area. By alerting site personnel to incidents when they occur, and providing the zone- and floor-based location on site, Spot-r reduces response time and improves overall injury management. Supervisors can also trigger a site wide evacuation alert to each worker's device in case of emergency.

Spot-r EquipTag

In November 2017, Triax announced the Spot-r EquipTag, which tracks operator identity, equipment location, and equipment utilization without the limitations of traditional telematics solutions such as equipment size or indoor/outdoor location. The sensor uses the Spot-r network to track location and utilization and layers in Spot-r Clip workforce and certification data to identify how equipment is being operated and by whom at the job site.

Partnerships

In August 2017, Triax announced a two-way integration with Procore Technologies' project management platform. The integration automatically sends Spot-r worksite data, including man hours and safety incidents, to Procore for accidents, timecards, manpower and daily construction reports.

In October 2017, Triax announced that Lettire Construction Corporation is the first New York City contractor to implement Spot-r at its job site.

In November 2017, Triax announced an integration with the Autodesk BIM 360 construction management platform. The integration allows Spot-r users to view the current location of workers on 3D BIM (Building Information Modeling) models.

Triax Smart Impact Monitor

Triax previously manufactured and sold two sports products, the SIM-P for individual athletes and the SIM-G for teams and organizations, designed and developed to measure the force and frequency of head impacts in real-time. The Smart Impact Monitor (SIM) embedded a small sensor in either a headband or skullcap to measure hits to head during sporting practice and activity. The sensors contain a 3-axis high-g linear accelerometer that measures 3 to 400 G’s, and a 3-axis gyroscope to capture rotational acceleration.

In October 2014, Triax announced a partnership with retired American soccer player, Abby Wambach, to launch the SIM-P to support long-term player health and safety. Abby suffered a concussion on April 20, 2013 while playing for the Western New York Flash of the NWSL. Abby Wambach promoted the SIM-P to remind players of all ages that good technique can help improve their soccer game and can help avoid injury. President and co-founder Chad Hollingsworth appeared on CBS This Morning to talk about concussions in women's soccer during the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup.
