Senior-Focused Fitness Trackers

This Wearable Device is Equipped with an Urgent Response Button

— August 24, 2016 — Life-Stages
The 'Lively Wearable' is an innovative fitness tracker that was designed with seniors in mind -- with technology that helps consumers to monitor their activity levels and memory efficiency, as well as protective features such as a button that can contact urgent response services.

With this, the wearable makes it easier for seniors to maintain their independence, as they know that in the event of an emergency, help is just the press of a button away. In the case of a fall, the Lively Wearable is able to use sensory detectors that can also alert urgent response, meaning that even if knocked unconscious, consumers still have access to help.

By linking the wearable to the Lively Wearable app, consumers are able to connect to their family as it alerts them any time that the urgent response button is activated as well. In addition to this, the fitness trackers include mind challenges to keep the memory sharp and health tips and games to keep consumers engaged.
