Falls represent one of the most detrimental occurrences for the elderly. Given the continually increasing ageing demographic, there is a pressing demand for advancing fall detection systems. The swift progress in sensor networks and the Internet of Things (IoT) has made human-computer interaction through sensor fusion an acknowledged and potent approach for tackling the issue of fall detection. Even IoT-enabled systems can deliver economical health monitoring solutions tailored to pregnant women within their daily environments. Recent research indicates that these remote health monitoring setups have the potential to enhance the well-being of both the mother and the infant throughout the pregnancy and postpartum phases. One more emerging advancement is the integration of 'panic buttons,' which are gaining popularity due to the escalating emphasis on safety. These buttons instantly transmit the user's real-time location to pre-designated emergency contacts when activated. Our solution focuses on the above three challenges we see every day. Fall detection for the elderly helps the elderly in case they fall and have nobody around for help. Sleep pattern sensing is helpful for pregnant women based on the SPO2 sensors integrated within our device. It is also bundled with heart rate monitoring. Our third solution focuses on a panic situation; upon pressing the determined buttons, a panic alert would be sent to the emergency contacts listed. The device also comes with a mobile app developed using Flutter that takes care of all the heavy processing rather than the device itself.
