Every day around the world, elderly people are injured in falling accidents at home. The company Zoe Care would like to draw attention to this with its new product.
The French company Zoe Care has developed a new product which should be able to warn relatives if an older family member falls into the apartment. With its Zoe Fall solution, which consists of smart sockets placed around the house, these fall accidents can be detected. Zoe Fall is a Wi-Fi based and privacy-safe solution that makes it easy for you to get started.
The smart sockets are placed in the house and are AI-based The technology analyzes the radio waves generated between devices to detect interference that may be caused by a person falling in the home. If detected, a notification is sent to the relatives’ app, which they can respond to quickly. The AI-based technology can detect body movements that occur during falls, and since there are no cameras involved, the solution also respects the user’s privacy. A smart plug covers up to 70 square meters and Zoe Fall has been tested in several nursing homes with almost 100 percent detection of fall accidents.
The technology is somewhat reminiscent of WiZ SpaceSense, which also reads changes on a network to detect whether lighting should be turned on or off. Will there be more implementations of similar technologies in the future?
