The fall detection module of millimeter wave radar detects and warns the elderly in time. Filial piety is the first of Chinese traditional etiquette. Companionship is a long-lasting love. In today's fast-paced society, constant companionship becomes a luxury hope. The elderly in the family especially need the company and waiting of love. Sometimes love can be regretted because it came too late. According to statistics, in 2021, the number of elderly people in China will reach 290 million, and about 70 million elderly people fall every year. Elderly people over the age of 65 have a 30% to 40% chance of falling each year due to decreased muscle strength and other reasons. People over the age of 80 have a 50% chance of falling.

Millimeter wave radar fall detection module timely early warning and caring for the elderly

Falls are the leading cause of injury and death among the elderly, according to the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. These data are not only in China, but also in many countries around the world. Obviously, this has become a global topic. According to the World Health Organization, about 30% of the elderly in the world fall every year, 15% of the elderly fall more than twice, and more than 300,000 of them die. About 25 million elderly people at home in China fall accidentally every year. Most falls occurred between 3-6 a.m., with 54% at the bedside; secondly, in the bathroom, which accounted for 28%, while other daily activities accounted for only 18%. Bedrooms and bathrooms are the highest risk places for older adults to fall.


Where young people can stand up; for older people, falls may not come back, and falls have become a potential health risk for older adults living alone.


An enterprise can only truly make sense if it establishes its own development on the basis of the progress of the whole society. We look forward to bringing love into everyone's home, monitoring seniors for accidents is imminent.


We strive to use rational logic and rich imagination, use love and professionalism, and use the black technology of millimeter wave radar to make products and services humanized and convey love. Referring to past cases, there are countless examples of elderly people who have fallen and have suffered death or health consequences, reflecting the embarrassment of falling unnoticed. Therefore, personal privacy needs to be considered along with recognition accuracy and response time.


The properties of the millimeter wave radar fall detection module refer to a radar that transmits millimeter waves through an antenna and receives signals reflected by obstacles to calculate the relative speed, distance and angle to the target. The parameters considered for measurement and control include: output fall alarm signal, motion parameters, dwell time, etc., which are different from previous smart home sensing devices and wearable devices.


The millimeter wave radar fall detection module starts from the fall posture, fall process, and physical signs, and has carried out a lot of clinical practice with many elderly care institutions, forming a high-precision algorithm. And the bathroom shower and kitchen environment have been specially optimized. On the basis of accurate human life detection, an accurate fall alarm output for human respiration detection and motion sign detection is formed.


In addition, our millimeter-wave radar fall detection module has been connected to mainstream cloud platform systems such as Tuya Smart, Alibaba, and Huawei, and supports private cloud docking to provide complete solutions and customized services. Functional scenarios, data integration, software and hardware integration, one-stop service, pay more attention to the effectiveness of collection and information exchange.
