Samsung and Pearson Develop Wearable Tech to Help Strengthen Focus

Samsung has announced its collaboration with Pearson, the world’s lifelong learning company. The Korean firm’s Galaxy Watch 7 plays a key role in delivering Pearson’s new AI-powered wearable solution, Revibe. This partnership allows Pearson to take advantage of Samsung’s cutting-edge smartwatch technology to help individuals build skills in focus, attention, and self-regulation.

Revibe (short for reminder vibrations) helps you stay focused and build self-control through specialized vibrations and messaging on an assistive technology device. The device tracks users’ behavior and self-reports and then provides personalized insights through the mobile app or watch. Moreover, it organizes schedules and reminders while generating assessment and progress monitoring reports.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 7 meets Revibe’s needs with features such as Knox security platform, Freestanding Mode, and Kiosk Mode. Thanks to Knox Manage, Revibe can easily update software and keep the watch compatible in Freestanding Mode. Likewise, Kiosk Mode keeps the Galaxy Watch focused on the Revibe app, helping users enjoy easier access and fewer distractions.

“With Revibe, Pearson empowers individuals who experience focus and attention barriers, along with their families and support networks, by helping them build the self-regulation skills they need for success,” said Rich Brancaccio, Senior Director, Pearson, and the Founder of Revibe. “After evaluating multiple wearable solutions, we determined that the Samsung Galaxy Watch was the right device for Revibe, offering the ideal balance of a low-distraction interface, extended battery life and secure data collection capabilities to serve the needs of these individuals and help them reach their fullest potential.”

The collaboration between Samsung and Revibe shows a shared goal of advancing innovation to create accessible tools that help people of all ages improve focus and attention. It currently begins with the Galaxy Watch 7 but is expected to expand to include more Galaxy devices in the future. To learn more about the Revibe wearable, you can check out the official listing.
