The water-resistant thingamajig can be programmed to SMS an alert with real-time GPS coordinates to up to 10 numbers. You can also press a button to trigger the alert manually. A planned update will include details of the emergency, such as a fall, in the SMS.

If you're worried about false alerts, Newton's Meter has been extensively tested by two guys wearing padding to "fall down and stuff". The company then submitted the data collected to a Singapore data verification agency. A built-in AI will also learn your day-to-day patterns, and after about 150 hours of cumulative use, it will create a profile. Algorithms based on that profile will then help monitor your safety.
