Samsung Powers Pearson’s Revibe Smartwatch-based Solution to Help Children and Adults with Focus and Attention Challenges
Children and adults face challenges with focus and attention. This not only makes learning difficult but can seriously impact a person’s ability to plan tasks, complete work and finish assignments. With children, the effects of limited focus can be particularly pronounced, inhibiting their educational, social and emotional development.
Samsung Electronics, a world leader in consumer electronics, and Pearson (FTSE: PSON.L), the world’s lifelong learning company, are collaborating to help children and adults overcome these challenges.
Pearson recently introduced Revibe, an AI-enabled wearable solution delivered via the Samsung Galaxy Watch7, to help individuals build skills in focus, attention and self-regulation.
Revibe tracks on-task behavior, fidgeting, work completion and exercise while providing reminders to stay focused, remember tasks and complete work, which, as part of a healthy lifestyle, may help individuals living with conditions such as ADHD.
By leveraging AI to translate real-time behavioral data into actionable insights, Revibe equips professionals and individual users with data-informed pathways to improve focus in the classroom and beyond.
Combining Pearson’s proprietary, attention-enhancing software with the Galaxy Watch7, including Samsung’s Knox mobile security platform, Revibe is a discreet, real-time tool designed to help users improve concentration and develop stronger self-regulation skills throughout the day. This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to advancing innovation and creating inclusive, accessible solutions that empower individuals of all ages who are navigating focus and attention-related challenges.
Using AI and advanced algorithms to understand Galaxy Watch sensor data, Revibe learns each user’s behavior patterns, including attention span, fidgeting, steps, calories burned and more. Revibe’s software then addresses individuals with focus and attention challenges from multiple angles. Vibrating alerts bring the user back on task and bolster executive function, while on-screen “light bulb moments” provide guidance that won’t disturb others.
Leveraging Samsung’s Freestanding Mode on the Galaxy Watch, Revibe also eliminates smartphone distractions by enabling the Galaxy Watch to operate independently, without a smartphone, for a streamlined user experience. Freestanding Mode is especially important when Revibe is used by children, since most smartwatches are simply an extension of a smartphone, and many schools don’t allow children to carry phones.
The Revibe app offers users, families, educators, and clinicians a user-friendly dashboard that visualizes progress in near real time, which can lead to more customized support in the classroom and elsewhere to help individuals succeed.
“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 life1 and secure data collection capabilities to serve the needs of these individuals and help them reach their fullest potential.”
“Samsung Galaxy Watch perfectly fits Revibe’s needs thanks to capabilities such as Samsung’s Knox mobile security management platform, Freestanding Mode, and Kiosk Mode,” said Cherry Drulis, MBA, BSN, RN, Senior Director, Regulated Industry Samsung. “With Knox, Revibe can apply policies to the Galaxy Watch, including software updates to ensure continued compatibility, then detach it from its phone dependency as a freestanding device. Freestanding Mode maintains location tracking so lost devices can be recovered2, while Kiosk Mode keeps Galaxy Watch focused on Revibe’s application, ensuring individuals with focus and attention challenges enjoy easier access with fewer distractions.”
The Samsung and Revibe collaboration will begin with the Samsung Galaxy Watch7 series and is expected to expand to additional Samsung devices. Revibe will offer the solution to clinical professionals across education and healthcare, as well as individual users, parents, and other care teams.
