App Features

The Fall detector includes an IoT component, a camera with Raspberry pi and the software.

The movement of pets does not trigger alerts. Alerts are only generated when a human fall is detected.

Application of the fall detector extends beyond family household usage to hospitals and care facilities where multiple patients can be monitored.

The solution observes the living area from a selected point and detects the movement of humans.

Privacy is secure with only the fall detection alert being recorded. Visuals from the cameral are not stored.

It is also a vital tool for seniors living independently providing reassurance to caregivers and family alike.

Results

The system is able to detect falls and allows caregivers and families to provide safe care to weak and/or elderly patients.
