ER-ID for life

The ER-ID is a digital emergency card for sportswear. Your outdoor and sports adventures are a little safer with the ER-ID and give you a voice in case of emergency. It contains two phone numbers and your most important emergency data. You'll find the label in selected sportswear from brands that care about getting you home safe.

The ER-ID-System

As a digital emergency card, the ER-ID ensures communication between the user and first responders and reduces the response and preparation time for further emergency measures. Barriers to reading the code should be as low as possible and the user data should be worthless for systematic misuse. The collection of the data is therefore designed in such a way that the personal reference is only created manually by the wearer of the QR code.

  3. ER-ID Data

The ER-ID label is worn on the inside of clothing and is thus protected from unintentional scanning. The ER-ID code takes on the function of a key for reading out the data with any commercially available QR code scanner. This means that the code can basically be read with any smartphone, but is largely protected from systematic unauthorized access.

The ER-ID-Story

Anyone who crosses the European continent on a bicycle from west to east will, at a certain point, ask themselves the question: how do you quickly share relevant medical data alone on the road in an emergency case? Dirk Wellmann cycled from west to east twice and then moved from Hamburg to Constanta on the Romanian Black Sea coast. Here he developed the digital emergency card ER-ID.

    Romania is one of the most beautiful countries in Europe. But also the country with the highest number of traffic accidents in Europe. The ER-ID was initially a development just for me, until other cyclists asked me that they also wanted to use the label on their clothing.
