Fall Detection System Market: Overview
Fall detection system alerts emergency
services in case it detects accidental fall. It is primarily designed
for geriatric people. The system comprises two major components: a
wearable device and a cell phone. Once the wearable device detects a
fall, it sends an alert to the cell phone; then the cell phone alerts to
the emergency contacts selected by the user.
Some of the recent developments that may favor the fall detection system market are:
- Bayalarm medical, a key manufacturer of fall detection system developed a device called On-The-Go Protection. It connects with our 24X7 monitoring station without needing to push a button. This will help save life of users in case of a major fall.
- Similarly, Medical Guardian introduced Family Guardian, a fall detection system, that will enables family, friends, and caregivers to stay updated on health and activity levels of the user throughout the day.
All these product launched by the manufacturers are adding value to fall detection systems.
Apart from above, some of the prominent
players operating in the global fall detection system market are Baxter
International Inc., Johnson and Johnson, CryoLife, Luna Innovations
Incorporated, C. R. Bard, Inc., B. Braun Melsungen AG, Integra Life
Sciences Corporation, Cohera Medical, Inc., Tissuemed Ltd., and Chemence
Medical, Inc
The fall detection system market is
anticipated to progress substantially in the forecast period. This is
mainly because of the factors such as increasing geriatric population
and growing adoption of wearable technology by consumers. Apart from
this, rising penetration of smartphones is another factor expected to
drive the fall detection system market. Further, growing inclination of
consumer towards personal healthcare systems may propel the global fall
detection system market.
Accelerometers and gyroscopes are the
most widely used components in the fall detection system. They help in
detecting fall and send signal to call emergency contact decided by the
user. The increasing use of accelerometers & gyroscopes is wearable
technology and smartphones is driving the fall detection system market.
Apart from this, low practicality and
acceptability of the technology among elders and limitation of device
detect fall other than simulated conditions in the developing region is
expected to hamper the growth of the fall detection system market. Along
with this, unavailability of emergency service is also a major
restraint for the market growth. Nevertheless, increased device
capability and increasing number of artificial intelligence companies in
the market is expected to offer lucrative avenues for the growth of the
fall detection system market.
Fall Detection System Market: Regional Outlook
Geographically, North America is expected
to hold major share in the global fall detection system market. This is
mainly because of the growing adoption of fall detection devices by the
people in the region. Apart from this, growing adoption of the machine
learning and rising inclination of people towards self-care devices is
expected to bolster growth of the global fall detection system market.
