Android robot.svg Android Fall Detector Apps - For Wobbly / Elderly People

PS 2025-06 Other ideas:
  • Scatter Alexa's around, activate with "Hey Alexa, Help, I have fallen"
    Search with that phrase & one gets various interesting hits.
  • Put a "Dead Man's Handle[s]" aka train drivers, en route between living room, kitchen, bathroom, where the wobbly person could push it each time they go past. Switch could be eg of type electrical foot switch used for a sewing machine, but not on floor, as they couldnt balance on one foot to push it, instead on table top. It would connect to some device eg a raspberry Pi ? to send an email to a special address, Receiving end could have a watch dog timer, & if no signal received within certains times, depeding on day or night, generate an alert email or sms (via eg a gnokiii interface to a mobile).
  • My other idea of networked movement monitors )video cam or PIR, is detailed elsewhere.
As sent 2025-08-02 to www.ageuk.org.uk/contact-us/miscellaneous/
    Age UK still have no page for: Smart phone fall detector apps (many exist)
    Try & fail with:
    www.ageuk.org.uk/search/?q=Smart+phone+fall+detector+app
    I suggest either:
    Point at my page berklix.org/~jhs/android/fall.html
    Or Take info from my page & create your own page.
    I have no commercial interest, I'm just an engineer with a falling parent in UK & want best info & alternatives not just for her but others globaly,
    AgeUK listing just a single preferred service provider in UK is insufficient.
    Any one system, even pendant + wrist + base station + dual SIM to remote alert service, will fail occasionaly,
    2 different systems bring more security, eg additional to above alert service, a seperate android watch on other wrist.
    (Analogy: Volvo over 40 years back offered dual circuit brakes, not single. )
