What is the Vibby?
The Vibby is a sleek, contemporary and technologically advanced fall detector which is worn on the wrist.
The Vibby will automatically raise an alert if it senses the user has fallen, and also enables the wearer to easily call for help manually.
Who is it for?
The Vibby can give confidence to anyone who is at risk of falling, such as:
- People with limited mobility
- Older people
- People with learning disabilities
- People with epilepsy
- People with diabetes
- People with conditions such as Parkinson’s disease
How does it work?
Using an innovative algorithm and a new pressure sensor, the Vibby is designed to automatically detect a serious fall and raise an alert, either at the monitoring centre or on a carer pager.
The wearer can also manually raise an alert by pressing the button on the face of the Vibby.
Confirmation that an alert has been raised will be given by an LED light and vibration.
