Linkage
Wearable and mobile app
In today’s world retired senior citizens lack the attention and warmth of their loved ones. These personas are not completely bed ridden or diseased but active old people who constantly feel the need to be connected to their family members and be socially active. Linkage is a communication system that makes life easier for the senior citizens and their families. It monitors daily activities of the senior citizens and sends alerts to the family members (via mobile app) in case of emergencies.
