The challenge Personal safety is a growing concern in a variety of settings: from high-risk jobs where HSE managers must guarantee workers’ security to the increasingly common work and study choices that drive family and friends far apart, sometimes leading to more isolated lives. In all of these situations, having a system capable of sensing […]
For those aged 65 and over, falls can be one of the most serious health concerns they face either due to lower mobility or decreasing overall coordination. Recognizing this issue, Naveen Kumar set out to produce a wearable fall-detecting device that aims to increase the speed at which this occurs by utilizing a Transformer-based model […]
Bone density, strength, and coordination all decrease as we age, and this fact can lead to some serious consequences in the form of slips, falls, and other accidents. In Finland, falling is the most common type of accidental death among those age 65 and over, amounting to around 1,200 per year. But Thomas Vikstrom hopes […]
Certain industries rely on workers being able to reach high spaces through the use of ladders or mobile standing platforms. And because of their potential danger if a fall were to occur, Roni Bandini had the idea to create an integrated system that can detect a fall and report it automatically across a wide variety of scenarios. […]
A dangerous fall can happen to anyone, but they are particularly dangerous among the elderly as that demographic might not have effective ways to get help when needed. Rather than having to purchase an expensive device that costs up to $100 per month to use, Nathaniel F. on Hackster wanted to build a project that harnessed the power of […]
