The Fall Risk device is developed to be worn by members of society who are at risk of falling due to age, medications, or disabilities. The device is created with the goal of being unintrusive, easy to use, and causing minimal disruption to daily routine. If the device detects a fall, it will send a notification to one or more chosen phones, including information such as where the fall occurred.
