SmartCells: The Secret to Keeping a Hybrid AI-Powered Workforce Productive


Despite what Sci-Fi movies would have you believe, AI-Powered robots in the workplace are not here to overtake us. 

Rather, humans and automated robots have been working together quite peacefully for decades.

With industrial use of AI up 14% year over year, automation experts speculate that AI use will continue to increase as a way to address social distancing in the age of COVID-19.

In fact, in a recent Plant Engineering article regarding AI use in the workplace, expert Mark Messina, COO Americas, Geek+ America, covered 7 reasons why he believes that AI use will continue to grow, including the fact that AI can reduce time-consuming physical tasks by finding the goods in the warehouse and bringing them to human counterparts at sorting stations.

Although this would be beneficial and could help increase productivity, it fails to address an important ergonomic issue for the human workforce: standing in one place too long leads to musculoskeletal discomfort and fatigue.

That’s where SmartCells Anti-fatigue Solutions come in.

At SmartCells, we believe that “Life Shouldn’t Hurt”™. This belief guided us to engineer our unique SmartCells™ Cushioning Technology.

The optimized design of SmartCells offer a stable surface over cylindrical cells which soften under impact and resist bottoming out. This creates the perfect balance of support and cushion, for maximum fatigue relief while minimizing the risk of musculoskeletal injuries; allowing users to stay safe and comfortable.

SmartCells Anti-fatigue solutions are available in pre-sized mats or as custom flooring for unique areas and are specifically designed to relieve fatigue in standing activities, no matter what you’re doing.

Additionally, in response to COVID-19, we are pleased to offer our SafeSpace solutions that are designed to help increase productivity and comfort while maintaining proper distancing protocols.

SmartCells SafeSpace Solutions, available as Runners or Custom Flooring, are constructed by alternating the color of the SmartCells to create defined work areas of virtually any shape and size that are properly spaced.

Available in 2’ or 3’ wide options, SafeSpace Runners are configured to any length and are constructed of connectable sections that incorporate the desired workstation size separated by 6’ distancing buffers. This makes for the ideal solution for production lines.

For custom modular workstations or wall-to-wall applications, SafeSpace Custom flooring is easily installed and incorporates personal workstations separated by distancing buffers.
