Radar presence sensing
Small sensors detect presence and movement in agreed areas, including changes in how often someone moves between rooms.
What it cannot do
Radar sensing does not identify a person's face or produce a camera image.
Elderly home monitoring in Singapore
Know they're moving, eating and keeping their routine.
Support your parent to age in place with useful signals about everyday routines, without placing cameras in private rooms.
Your father may accept a sensor on the ceiling. He may refuse a camera in his bedroom. That difference shapes every home assessment we make.
Monitoring without cameras
Presence, movement and home conditions only.
Example sensing layout
Ceiling sensor reads presence and movement. It does not create images.
No cameras in bedrooms, bathrooms or private areas
Alerts can follow the person's usual routine
Caregiver notification order is yours to set
The sensing approach
How non-intrusive sensing works
Each device has a defined job. The system looks for useful changes in a home, without recording video of the person who lives there.
Everyday contact sensors
Door, bed, chair and appliance contacts can help show whether familiar routines are happening at expected times.
What it cannot do
A contact sensor reports an opening or change of state. It cannot tell who caused it.
Home environment checks
Temperature, humidity and air-quality readings can flag conditions that may need a family member to check in.
What it cannot do
Environmental readings do not diagnose illness or replace a clinical assessment.
Local processing where possible
Where the selected setup allows, signals are processed in the home to limit the information sent outside it.
What it cannot do
Local processing does not remove the need to agree on data access and notification settings.
Useful changes, not constant alerts
The signals families care about
Patterns are compared with the person's own routine. An alert can prompt a call or visit; it cannot explain the cause by itself.
Unusual inactivity
A longer-than-usual period without movement can trigger a check-in based on an agreed time window.
Example: Routine within your usual range today.
Mobility change
Slower movement between rooms or longer pauses can show a gradual shift worth discussing with the family.
Example: Room-to-room movement is close to the recent baseline.
Routine drift
Consistent changes in meal preparation, sleep timing or bathroom visits can be reviewed over a longer period, such as two weeks.
Example: Meal-time activity follows the person's recent pattern.
Home environment exceptions
A high room temperature or a stove-left-on pattern can prompt a practical check before it becomes a bigger concern.
Example: Home readings are within the agreed range.
A notification plan that fits your family
You decide who gets told, when and how
Set the order, channel and quiet hours with the senior and the people supporting them.
Primary caregiver
App alert or SMS for the person you nominate.
Another family member
Receives an alert if the first person does not respond.
Care provider, if arranged
Can be included in the escalation plan where appropriate.
Family first: the primary caregiver is contacted before the secondary family member and any arranged care provider.
Choose app notifications, SMS or phone calls for each person. Quiet hours can limit non-urgent alerts overnight; weekly summaries are available for families who prefer fewer interruptions.
Designed around Singapore homes
Monitoring that fits an existing HDB flat
Wireless devices can be placed around the routine, without renovation or rewiring. The assessment identifies useful locations and spaces where sensing should be left out.
For a shared flat, the plan can take other household members' privacy and daily movement into account.
Private rooms stay private. Bathrooms are deliberately excluded.
One-bedroom flat
Start with shared living space and the route between the sleeping area and kitchen. Only add contacts that answer a clear routine question.
- Living area: presence and movement
- Main door: entry and exit events
- Kitchen: optional appliance contact
- Bathroom: no sensor placement
The trust comes first
Monitoring without surveillance
The senior should know what is installed, what it detects and who receives an alert before the system is set up.
Consent is part of installation
We explain each device in plain language and agree on access with the person living in the home.
Keep only useful signals
Settings focus on the information needed for agreed routine and environment alerts, rather than a stream of activity for its own sake.
Give each person the right level of access
Wider family members can receive summaries while access to detailed activity remains limited to approved people.
A practical first step
Arrange a senior home assessment
We review the flat, everyday routines, existing devices and the caregiver contact order. Bring your parent into the conversation from the start.
- Room-by-room sensor placement, with private areas excluded
- Routine windows and the changes worth flagging
- Caregiver order, channels and quiet hours
Talk through the home setup
Share the flat type and who should be part of the assessment. We'll discuss suitable next steps.
