1.backdrop
With the accelerated development of the aging society, the need for safe monitoring of the elderly has become increasingly prominent, and the traditional manual care model is difficult to meet the real-time monitoring needs. The elderly person GPS tracker based on GPS, wireless network, sensor and other technologies has become an important solution to cope with the risk of lost elderly groups and improve the quality of elderly care services .
2.option
(1).Technical principles
Location data is collected through GPS satellites, mobile base stations, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth signals, combined with sensors to monitor physiological indicators (such as heart rate, blood oxygen), and transmitted to the cloud platform or monitoring terminal in real time
(2).Device type
Smart watch : integrated positioning, call, health monitoring functions .
breastplate/button device : strong concealment, support sewn into clothing or wear, both waterproof and anti-disassembly design .
card/watch device : large screen display, voice broadcast, easy operation and emergency call .
3.peculiarity
(1) Multi-functional integration : real-time positioning, track playback, one-button alarm, health monitoring (heart rate, blood oxygen) and two-way call .
(2) Light and endurance : some elderly person GPS trackers only weigh 65g, support long standby (some up to 5 days), both portability and low power consumption .
(3) Accurate positioning : GPS+ base station dual positioning, error range can be controlled within 15 meters, support electronic fence early warning .
(4) Safety design : anti-disconnecting, magnetic charging and other structures, reduce the risk of equipment falling off or misoperation .
4.Merits and demerits
(1)advantage
Improved safety: Real-time tracking and emergency alarms reduce the risk of getting lost .
Enhance nursing efficiency: nursing institutions can optimize service process through trajectory analysis.
Humanized experience: taking into account privacy protection and moderate freedom, safeguarding the dignity of the elderly .
(2)disadvantages
Battery life limit: conventional equipment needs 1-3 days to charge, the charging port is easy to wear after long-term use.
material problem: light-colored shell is easy to dirty, easy to clean .
5.Usage scenario
(1) Home care : After the elderly living alone wear the elderly person GPS tracker, their families can remotely check the location through the APP and set up an electronic fence to receive cross-border reminders .
(2) Nursing institutions : nursing staff use trajectory data to optimize service moving lines and quickly respond to emergencies (such as fall alarm) .
(3) Emergency rescue : in case of sudden illness, the one-click call function can link the rescue agencies to accurately locate and shorten the response time .
(4) Cognitive impairment groups : demand prevention design to prevent Alzheimer's patients from taking off the elderly person GPS tracker by themselves, to ensure continuous monitoring .
