Lumisafe: A Privacy-Friendly Fall Detection Sensor

Published by the Lumi AI.

Lumisafe is designed as a privacy-friendly fall detection system. In many environments, especially healthcare settings, public restrooms, or even private homes, monitoring for falls is crucial for safety. However, traditional monitoring methods often raise concerns about privacy. Lumisafe addresses this challenge head-on by prioritizing user privacy while providing reliable fall detection.

The core of Lumisafe's privacy-friendly approach lies in its use of advanced depth sensor technology, specifically Time-of-Flight cameras. Unlike standard cameras that capture detailed visual images (RGB data), depth sensors measure the distance to objects. This means the Lumisafe device sees shapes and movements in 3D space, but it does not capture identifiable features like faces or personal details. This fundamental difference ensures that no personal or private visual information is ever recorded or transmitted.

Beyond the sensor technology, Lumisafe enhances privacy through its data processing method. All sensor data captured by the device is processed 100% locally. This means the analysis, including the machine learning models that detect falls and the training of personalized models, happens directly on the Lumisafe device itself. There is no need to send sensitive data to external servers or cloud services for processing. This local processing capability, built on open-source hardware solutions, provides users with confidence that their data remains within their control and environment.

The machine learning models integrated into Lumisafe are specifically trained for pose estimation and fall detection. These models work with the depth data to accurately identify when a fall has occurred. Because the processing is local, the models can even adapt and improve their accuracy based on the specific environment without compromising privacy. This combination of privacy-focused hardware and local, intelligent processing makes Lumisafe a unique solution.

Lumisafe offers solutions for both families (Lumisafe S1) and public spaces (Lumisafe P1), bringing this privacy-friendly technology to different needs. Whether it's for monitoring an elderly family member at home or ensuring safety in a public facility, Lumisafe provides peace of mind without sacrificing personal privacy. The user-friendly design and easy-to-use app further make this technology accessible. By focusing on privacy from the ground up, Lumisafe sets a new standard for fall detection systems, proving that safety and privacy can go hand in hand.
