Could AT&T prevent falls?

Thursday, 04 June 2009 07:30

AT&T is experimenting with telehealth devices and a communications network that might reduce falls in the home, a major cause of death among the elderly.

Great item for the 'pointer to the future' watchers, posted in the 'Submitted by readers' section (scroll to the bottom). How did I miss it??

I am loath to dissagree with one of the legends of Telecare, but I hope that Dr. Doughty suggestion that mobile telecare solutions are 10 to 15 years away, is exaggerated (hopefully by about 9 to 14 years!). If the right "form factor" can be found to overcome user objections, surely a mobile device offers greater personal freedom than a home based system.

Sink the Bismark! I love it and reluctantly agree, my own mother won't use her new DVD player despite having the box-set of "Keeping up appearances"! So the challange for us product developers is to make it something people will WANT to use. I also agree that it's time in the mainstream will come, so right now the market is only for the 'early adopters'.
Great discussion folks!
