Comprehensive Health Monitoring

Stay proactive about your health with the falls detection watch’s advanced monitoring capabilities.

• Heart Rate Detection: Equipped with a high-precision heart rate sensor, the personal alarm watch continuously monitors your heart rate. If it detects an abnormal heart rate—whether too high or too low—it sends instant notifications to you and designated caregivers. This feature is crucial for early detection of potential heart-related issues.

These health monitoring features provide peace of mind, allowing users and their families to keep a vigilant eye on vital health metrics without the need for separate devices.

Fall Detection and SOS Alerts

Safety is paramount, and the Falls Detection Watch is engineered to respond effectively in emergencies.

• Fall Alert: Utilizing advanced motion sensors and algorithms, the watch automatically detects falls or collisions. In the event of a fall, it sends immediate alerts to pre-programmed emergency contacts, providing them with your exact location for a swift response.
• SOS Button: A dedicated SOS button allows users to call for help instantly. Simply pressing the button triggers a call to trusted contacts or emergency services. The personal alarm watch can be programmed to dial multiple numbers until someone answers, ensuring help is always reachable.

These features are especially beneficial for seniors living alone or individuals with mobility issues, offering an extra layer of protection and independence.

Two-Way Voice Calling

Stay connected effortlessly with seamless communication features.

• 4G LTE Connectivity: The watch supports multiple 4G frequency bands (AU: B1, B3, B5, B7, B8, B28), ensuring reliable and clear voice calls across Australia. Whether you’re in the city or rural areas, you can count on consistent connectivity.
• Hands-Free Communication: The built-in microphone and speaker facilitate easy two-way communication. Answer calls directly from your wrist without the need to fumble for a phone. In emergencies, this hands-free feature can be a lifesaver, allowing you to communicate even if you’re unable to reach your phone.

This functionality keeps users connected with family, friends, and caregivers at all times, enhancing both safety and social interaction.

Blood Oxygen Detection

The watch measures your blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) levels directly from your wrist. Maintaining proper blood oxygen levels is vital, especially for individuals with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions. Regular monitoring can help in early detection of issues like hypoxia.

Real-Time GPS Positioning

Know your exact location at all times with advanced tracking technologies.

• Accurate Tracking: The watch employs multiple positioning systems, including GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and LBS (Location-Based Services), to provide precise real-time location updates. This multi-faceted approach ensures accuracy even in challenging environments like urban areas or indoors.
• Geo-Fence: Set up specific activity zones or safe areas using the geo-fence feature. Caregivers receive instant alerts when the wearer enters or leaves these predefined zones. This is particularly useful for individuals prone to wandering or for ensuring they stay within safe boundaries.
• Location by Request: Loved ones can request the watch’s location at any time via the mobile app. This feature provides peace of mind, knowing you can check on the wearer’s whereabouts whenever needed.

These location services are invaluable for ensuring the safety of seniors and individuals requiring close monitoring.
