Fall detection adds an extra layer of protection and assurance that help is on the way in the event of a fall where the wearer is unable to press the button.  Using a combination of sensors and software, the pendant detects changes in motion patterns. When the pendant detects changes that indicate the wearer has fallen, it announces that a “fall has been detected” and contacts the monitoring center.

In the event that the wearer has not fallen and the signal was triggered, you can cancel the call by pressing the help button for two seconds.

Automatic Fall Detection*:

Fall detection is an optional service for HOME & AWAY DUO and uses patented algorithms to detect falls.  Requires a seperate AutoFALL Pendant to be worn around the neck.

If a fall is detected, users will be connected to specialists who can dispatch emergency services if needed.

Users will be able to tell specialists if they do not need assistance.

We cannot guarantee that the service will always accurately determine a fall. It is advised that users always press the button if they need help.

The fall detection feature can be enabled and disabled by calling customer service at 877-913-3680

* NOTE: Optional AutoFALL Fall Detection available for $10.00/month more. Fall detector does not detect 100% of falls. If able, users should always push their help button when they need assistance. System requires daily charging, and access to AT&T Wireless Cellular network.

GPS Location Services:

HOME & AWAY DUO utilizes A-GPS technology. A-GPS stands for Assisted Global Positioning System. It enhances the performance of a basic GPS’s location time and accuracy.

Compared with regular GPS systems, A-GPS provides much faster positioning even when GPS signal conditions are weak. A-GPS takes less power (saving battery life) and time to acquire satellite and cell tower signals and finds the user quicker. Under stand-alone GPS operation, a GPS receiver typically needs more than 30 seconds to receive the satellite position data and other satellite information required to compute a position.

In weak signal areas such as urban canyons, building interiors or locations surrounded by tall trees, where the receiver has limited or no direct access to the open sky, determining a positioning can take much longer.

A-GPS can locate a moving object within 5 yards in most cases, depending on the signal strength from satellites and cell towers.

The DUO device reports its location every 30 minutes when out of the charging cradle. This is to save battery life.

The DUO is NOT a “real-time” GPS tracker. Notifications are not sent instantaneously, but when the device reports its location. To obtain current device location, tap the “Locate” tile on the app.

WiFi Location Technology

HOME & AWAY DUO charging base can detect WiFi hotspots around the user to enable care specialists to help determine if the user is at home.

Cellular Triangulation Location Technology:

Using cell towers to detect location is not as accurate as GPS. Locating a mobile phone based on a single cell tower can place the mobile phone in a broad area, but it cannot pinpoint it. As the phone connects to more towers, the accuracy improves.

By using cell tower triangulation (3 towers), it is possible to determine a phone location to within an area of about ¾ square mile.

In densely populated urban areas, the cell towers are close together, and a much closer estimation of phone location can be made than in a rural area, where the towers are far apart.

If the nearest cell tower is busy, the cell signal would be picked up by the next nearest tower which could decrease location accuracy to beyond ¾ square mile or 30 meters of that cell tower.

HOME & AWAY DUO enables care specialists to use cellular triangulation to determine if the user is likely at home, enabling faster dispatch.

NOTE: Fall detector does not detect 100% of falls. If able, users should always push their help button when they need assistance. System requires daily charging, and access to AT&T Wireless Cellular network.
