Voice-Activated Personal Emergency Response System This emergency response solution facilitates real-time communication between users, caregivers, and emergency services. It features WiFi-sensing fall detection, capable of operating across rooms and even through walls, ensuring comprehensive safety monitoring. Additional capabilities include 24/7 voice-activated emergency requests, offline wakeword processing, and environmental anomaly detection (e.g., air quality, temperature, and humidity changes). The system integrates with a caregiver companion app, enabling two-way communication and real-time well-being updates via LTE and WiFi connectivity.
Project Achievements
Project Inspiration
Project Social Impact
By offering real-time health and environmental monitoring, this system enhances safety, independence, and peace of mind for older adults and their caregivers. The voice-activated emergency response eliminates the need for physical interaction, making it accessible for individuals with mobility limitations. Additionally, its ability to detect air quality and atmospheric anomalies ensures a broader scope of well-being beyond just emergency situations. By enabling caregivers to stay connected remotely, this innovation fosters greater independence for aging individuals while reducing the burden on family members and healthcare providers.
