LIGHT CARE
Light Care meets the need for emergency services for older people who live alone.
A sensor monitors any abnormal movement, such as falling or remaining still for a long time, without invading the users' privacy. The sensor automatically alerts a service centre or emergency contact to ensure the user gets immediate aid. The sensor also has a help button, which enables the user to get assistance easily.
With the BLE mesh technology, the life span of the sensor is long enough to overcome the charging problem. Also, the mesh tech further lowers the cost, making the Light Care service the most economical in the market. Qualified government allowance applicants can even get the product and service free.
