Sub-metre indoor positioning
Track residents in real time on a floor plan, then review timestamped movement history to understand activity patterns.

Elderly care IoT for care homes
A connected care environment for safer residents, faster response and complete digital records.
Combine sub-metre UWB indoor positioning, BLE devices, smart algorithms and cloud care workflows across bedrooms, corridors and communal areas.
The operating model
Integrated UWB + BLE ecosystem
The solution combines a high-precision UWB positioning network with a BLE telemetry network. Ceiling-mounted UWB anchors and wearable tags provide sub-metre spatial positioning, while BLE devices collect medical readings, wetness status and bedside calls.
Distributed UWB anchors and UWB/BLE gateway hubs cover bedrooms, corridors and communal lounges. Gateways aggregate the signals and upload encrypted health telemetry to the cloud CMS in real time.
Core care modules
One resident view, multiple safety workflows
Smart algorithm fall detection
Wearable tag algorithms detect impact and posture change, trigger help automatically and show exact coordinates for dispatch.
Wireless BLE call bell and SOS
Bedside call buttons and wearable wristband SOS buttons provide one-touch assistance from bed, wheelchair or anywhere in the facility.
Anti-wandering and restricted zones
Create geofenced areas around stairwells, lift lobbies, utility rooms and exits; alert nurse stations and care devices when boundaries are crossed.
Smart wetness alert
BLE wetness sensors monitor humidity in adult diapers and notify staff when care is needed, improving comfort and helping prevent skin breakdown.
Automated physiological data collection
Integrate BLE with OMRON instruments to record blood pressure, heart rate and temperature directly into digital medical records.
Dashboard view
Resident list at a glance
Closed-loop workflow
Every alert ends with a verified response
01
Signal broadcast
A call bell or automated event travels through the ceiling gateway to the cloud CMS.
02
Multi-channel dispatch
Bed number and event type appear on reception PCs, hallway displays, caregiver tablets and mobile alerts.
03
Physical verification
Staff attend in person and scan a unique QR code or iBeacon before the case can be cleared.
04
Audit and reporting
Every incident, patrol route, timestamp and check-in is recorded for supervisors and compliance reports.
Care operations
From daily patrols to clinical trends
Proactive patrol and checkpoint verification
Scheduled task reminders send staff to rooms or checkpoints. The mobile app verifies presence using hidden BLE iBeacon proximity and QR scanning, creating an automated cloud audit trail.
Full physiological history
Longitudinal charts for blood pressure, heart rate and temperature help care teams review trends across days, weeks or months and support better clinical decisions.

Elderly care FAQ
How do IoT systems help elderly care homes in Hong Kong with staffing shortages?
Combine indoor positioning, fall detection, call bells, anti-wandering, wetness alerts and digital vital records on one workflow. Alerts route to staff mobile or station with a clear next action, so night shifts rely less on noticing alone. We do not claim medical outcomes or subsidy eligibility without client-supplied wording.
