FEARLESS is a project designed to detecta wide range of risks with a singlesensor unit, enhancing mobility and enablingelderly to take active part in theself-serve society by reducing their fears.As elderly often refuse to wear any additionalsensors to activate alarm calls,FEARLESS will visually and acousticallydetect and handle risks by contactingthe relatives or care taker organization(e.g. TES or SAM) automatically - withoutthe need of any user intervention.FEARLESS does not only enhance themobility by reducing fears but also triggersan alarm, if significant behaviouralchanges (e.g. less mobility, change ofhealth condition and many others) aredetected.The actual low penetration of the technologyis expected to offer growth opportunitiesto information and communicationsinfrastructure providers, socialalarm equipment’s suppliers as well ascommunity service providers.
