Fall Detection for Elderly People: A Preventive and Rapid Response Approach

We are a cooperative that provides various types of care services for elderly people, both in nursing homes and in their own homes. Currently, there is no system capable of detecting falls among elderly people with 100% reliability. We are seeking a solution that offers the most accurate and trustworthy fall detection possible while also incorporating a preventive approach to reduce the risk of falls before they occur.

An ideal system would not only detect falls in real-time but also analyze patterns and behaviors to anticipate and prevent potential incidents. The primary goal of early detection is to enable a quick and efficient response, ensuring that necessary assistance can be provided as soon as possible. An ideal system should integrate advanced technologies to analyze behavioral patterns and detect risk factors leading to falls. Early detection ensures a fast and efficient response, allowing immediate assistance and preventing severe complications. By doing so, we aim to extend the period of autonomy for elderly individuals, enabling them to live independently and safely for longer.

Key Features of the Suara 's Desired Solution:

• High accuracy and reliability: A detection system that minimizes false positives and false negatives.

• Predictive capabilities: Real-time data analysis to identify risk factors and prevent falls.

• Seamless integration with remote assistance: Connecting family members, caregivers, and emergency services for immediate response.

• Adaptability: Solutions that work in both residential care and home care environments.

• Privacy and usability: Non-invasive technologies that are easy for elderly people to use and compatible with existing digital health systems.

We are particularly interested in technologies such as wearable sensors, sensor matrices, pressure sensors, AI-driven systems, voice-activated devices, radar-based detection, remote monitoring and Internet of Things (IoT, predictive health analytics and movement pattern detection, edge computing solutions to reduce detection latency and other advanced solutions that could enhance both fall prevention and rapid response.

We are looking for innovative solutions that can improve safety, autonomy, and well-being for elderly people in different care environments. Expected Impact:

• Reduction in the number of falls and prevention of home accidents. 

• Increased safety and confidence for elderly individuals in their daily lives.

• Optimization of healthcare and caregiving with advanced monitoring tools.

• Improved quality of life and promotion of active and healthy aging.
