The 24GHz Fall Detection Radar developed by Insightica is a millimeter wave radar module for human falling monitoring. With high sensitivity, compact shape and strong remote sensing capability, the radar is the unique 24GHz fall radar in the market. The radar can realize human motion posture sensing, and fall scene recognition and sensing within its detection coverage, and monitor and prompt the suspected fall of human body through pattern recognition judgment, and can judge the falling behavior.
The 24GHz Fall Detection Radar developed by Insightica scans indoor object activity at a frequency of 50ms once, and monitors falling behavior by synthesizing the Doppler signal, the intense change in distance and the information change before and after the fall.
Small size of 45x45mm.
Precise detection of falling behavior.
Achieve accurate judgment while filtering invalid behaviors based on FM continuous wave radar technology and uniquel energy accumulation algorithm.
Unique algorithm designed to identify fast falls and focus on the most dangerous events.
Self-settable accuracy for better experience.
Behavior verification function to reduce the probability of mistaken touch.
Dynamic data sensing only, no privacy violation.
Realization of real-time monitoring and early warning of falling.
Unaffected by temperature, humidity, noise, airflow, dust, Light, etc., suitable for harsh environments
Shower rooms, kitchens, nursing homes
Classic Applications
The 24GHz Fall Detection Radar developed by Insightica senses the movement of human in the room through millimeter waves and monitors whether the falling occurs by synthesizing the Doppler signal intense change, distance intense change and comparing the information change before and after the fall. It can be applied to community or individual home care for the elderly.
In traditional home care systems, the elderly are mainly monitored for falls by wearing special instruments or installing cameras. The special instruments are mainly smart bracelets or watches with integrated accelerometers and gyroscopes. Although smart bracelets or watches can detect whether an elderly person has fallen, the existing battery technology limits the endurance of the bracelet or watch, requiring the elderly person or caregiver to charge the device daily to ensure normal operation. The workload of caregivers is high and it also causes inconvenience to the elderly. Besides, there is a huge risk of privacy breach and inconvenience to install in private spaces such as bathrooms with camera solutions.
The 24GHz Fall Detection Radar developed by Insightica can actively sense the fall of human in the monitoring area, work without relying on ambient light, and function more intelligently without the risk of privacy breach. The radar can be installed in slippery areas such as bathrooms and kitchens, and is not affected by water mist. It will actively send signals to alert caregivers when abnormal conditions occur, eliminating the need for the elderly to wear additional equipment.
Compared to traditional home care technology solutions, the use of the 24GHz Fall Detection Radar can reduce the workload of remote caregivers, enhance the caregiver and the elderly experience, and improve the safety of the elderly living alone.
