The Tunstall Gem5 fall alarm watch is specifically tailored for individuals at high risk of falling who desire peace of mind. Utilizing motion sensors and AI, this watch helps ensure that accidents do not lead to hard falls by mistake; additionally it is also beneficial for those suffering from conditions causing loss of balance, such as Parkinson's or dementia. Medical alert systems typically use buttons to call for help, while certain devices also include built-in fall detection technology which will notify a monitoring center if a fall occurs. Such devices often feature smaller buttons which can easily be pressed in an emergency and may even be worn around the wrist for easy accessibility.
However, fall detection technology found in these devices is not foolproof; most companies provide a disclaimer on their website that states no device can completely eliminate false alarms. Therefore, many of these devices feature a help button to help manually call emergency services for help if necessary. When your device detects that a fall has taken place, it will either vibrate and sound an alarm to notify you that an incident has been detected, or use its emergency button to send an SOS message directly to emergency contacts. With an Apple Watch Series 4, if it has access to cellular networks within range of your iPhone it will attempt to call emergency services automatically for you. |
