lert.ly™ Launches New Ultra-Low Power WiFi Personal Safety System For Seniors
Fri, 01/09/2015 - 19:16 - Laurie Orlov
lert.ly™ has launched the first all battery-powered, all ultra-low power WiFi personal safety system, focused on protecting seniors who are living independently. The system uses patented technology that allows for fast installation and easy access by seniors and caregivers. The unique approach lert.ly™ employs has been recognized at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), where lert.ly™ made the finals of the LaunchIt CES 2015 startup competition.
“lert.ly™ has married great Internet Of Things (IoT) technology with powerful cloud-based monitoring and alerting services,” said John McKinley, founder of lert.ly™. “Every device we offer uses WiFi to communicate. That allows us to have a single technology approach that can scale up from serving an apartment, to a building, even to an entire campus. Solutions that use older home automation approaches for communicating, like ZigBee® and Z-wave®, are dead-end approaches that can’t easily scale to serve multi-resident needs.”
lert.ly™ offers industry leading products, like its WiFi-based safety intercom that works for over a year on a 9 volt battery. The wall communicator can be mounted in minutes, anywhere an emergency button is needed. The wall communicator is complemented by lert.ly’s wearable emergency button and activity tracker.
“Any personal safety solution needs to have both fixed and wearable elements, to provide comprehensive coverage.” said John McKinley, “Our wearable pendant provides a campus-wide emergency button that works for months on a single charge. More importantly, it also incorporates important functions like automated fall detection, daily activity tracking, wireless charging, and the ability to find lost or misplaced devices. On top of that, it’s comfortable and unobtrusive. Think of it as a ‘Fitbit®-like’ device for seniors.”
