About Us

IQTEMO grew out of its founders’ experience in emergency medical services. Co-founder and CEO Dr. Daniel Kehr is an anesthesiologist and emergency physician.

In practice, missing situational information, limited communication and disconnected technical systems make coordination difficult. Under time pressure, teams need clear information and a practical way to mobilize help.

This experience guides our product development. In industrial facilities, hospitals and railway environments, emergencies can go unnoticed, and those affected may be unable to call for help. Even when an alarm is raised, effective action depends on knowing where help is needed, who is available and how to coordinate the response. IQTEMO connects these steps by automatically notifying suitable responders on site and supporting their coordination, without requiring intervention from a control center.

We are developing an integrated safety and assistance system. A wearable device detects critical events or lets the wearer call for help. Location information provides clear, meaningful references—even indoors and without cellular coverage. The platform automatically identifies and alerts suitable responders, bringing together ad hoc teams to provide initial assistance until professional help arrives. It also supports day-to-day team coordination.

We combine emergency response experience with electronics and software development. Our aim is practical technology that helps people act effectively in critical situations.

Two functional prototypes have been developed and tested in a metal foundry. So far, trials focused on network connectivity, data transmission and positioning accuracy, including the system’s ability to learn its surroundings under industrial conditions. Together with the patent law firm Gulde & Partner, we are currently preparing a patent application for our localization method.

The third prototype generation is now under development, bringing sensing, communication and safety logic together in a single device. It will provide the basis for testing emergency detection, alerting and team coordination as an integrated system, alongside proactive warnings when users approach hazardous areas.
