Sedimentum cooperates with bonacasa

Cham ZG/Oensingen SO , June 2021

Sedimentum has developed a fall detector for seniors. Now the young company is entering into a cooperation with bonacasa. The company offers living with services and will equip various of its apartments with the sensors.

Many elderly people need to live independently in their own four walls for as long as possible, Sedimentum writes in a press release . The young company from Zug has developed a sensor that automatically calls for help in the event of a fall. Sedimentum is now teaming up with bonacasa for a pilot project. The Solothurn-based company, which specializes in living with services, will equip various of its residential units with the sensors.

Sedimentum's fall sensors are mounted on the ceiling like a lamp, the company said in the press release. The sensor works without a camera and microphone, but is able to detect a fall. In such a case, the sensor independently requests help, for example from Spitex or the concierge service. In this way, both the physical security and the privacy of the residents of the apartment are protected, writes Sedimentum.
