Mission

Having a longer life is a new concept to the human race, and we are just starting to make a habit of it. The number of problems associated with aging is on the rise, and innovations seem to be the only hope to provide solutions. We believe the quality of life is as essential as its longevity. It is established that trauma is one of the significant causes of morbidity and mortality in the elderly. Unsurprisingly, Japan's trauma registry database shows that Falls are the leading cause of trauma among the 65-79 age group (56.7%) and the ≥ 80 age group (78.9%).

Therefore, preventing the falls from happening closes the gateway to countless tragedies. We have developed a unique technology that predicts and prevent fall. We are committed to elevating the safety and quality of life of older adults with their independence and privacy protected.

Vision

No one ages equally. If we are lucky, we get the chance to live a long life. However, longevity does not necessarily mean having a long quality of life. When confronted with age-related changes, we can lose parts of our independence and privileges one by one. The freedoms we have taken for granted and the entitlements we once fought for can be robbed from us, resulting in new limitations and loss of freedom.

The Good news is that we are human beings, and we find solutions not to survive but to live. Our vision is to supply each person with the means unique to their aging process, so they would navigate different stages of older life safer and empowered, with their independence and privacy intact. Our motivation is simple; we want to age like that too.

Solution

Ken and Yuko are both 73 years old and live independently in their apartments. Ken has equipped his living space with fall detection technologies (both surveillance and radar technologies).

At the same time, Yuko had a Sage-sentinel fall prevention system installed in her living space. The animation below shows a highly probable scenario during the five months of their lives..
