Invention – Wearable Airbags For The Elderly.
ABOUT THE WEARABLE AIRBAGS PRODUCT
These wearable airbags, engineered by Suzhou Yidaibao Intelligent Technology Company and first introduced in 2019, offer a cushioned landing for those at risk of serious injury from a tumble. Buoying their functionality is a micro gyroscope and processor, diligently working together to detect the motion and angle of a fall.
Once a potential accident is identified, the garment blows up within a swift 0.18 seconds, significantly faster than the average time it takes for someone to hit the ground.
