ORBIS redefines alcohol and offender monitoring, aiming to eliminate the stigma associated with traditional ankle monitors and give remorseful individuals a chance to recover.

The Challenge

Designing a tamper proof monitoring device meant for true rehabilitation.

Competitor devices focus on anti-tampering and utilizing their monitors as a form of punishment. ORBIS™ is the first monitoring device with the goal of aiding rehabilitation and empowering individuals.

The Execution

ORBIS went through rounds of iteration from the design through engineering. Our team worked to establish the humanized smartwatch look and feel of the product while simultaneously designing it for all extreme tampering use case scenarios validated through rigorous testing.

ORBIS™ supports wellness features including heart rate, steps, and incoming messages that can be used as appointment reminders or accolades of sobriety.

By reflecting the current smartwatch landscape in form and design and housing cutting edge sensing technology, ORBIS™ opens doors to many new markets from consumer to workplace, that otherwise reject the competition.

The Impact

Humanizing tested and proven enforcement and monitoring technology.

ORBIS™ monitors for alcohol consumption by using a transdermal sensor. This new technological approach has consistently outperformed existing devices and tracks closely to Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC), the gold standard for measuring alcohol consumption, all while being housed in the smallest, most discreet design on the market.
