The fall detection function of Apple Watch is so convenient!Explain the functions and setting method | Capa, Inc. Corporate site
Did you know that Apple Watch has a function to detect the wearer falling and notify the emergency call service?The Apple Watch is now a tool that has always monitored personal physical information and is an indispensable tool for fitness and health management.This time, let's summarize one of the useful functions of Apple Watch, "fall detection function".
What you can understand in this article -About the fall detection function of Apple Watch, how to set up the actual setting method, the evolution of Apple Watch
What is the fall detection function of Apple Watch?
The Apple Watch Series 4 and later models have a function to detect the fallen to the wearer and to contact the emergency call service as needed.However, basically, it does not work by default, so if you want to use it, you need to make some settings.The target Apple Watch is three models: Series 7, Series 4, and SE for the current product (as of January 2022).If you include the past, it will be in Series 4 or later.
Let's take a look at how it works when you actually detect the falling of the wearer.
1) Display on the screen that the fall has detected
This means confirmation with the wearer.If it doesn't fall or falls down, the wearer closes the notification screen or tap "I'm OK" to complete the operation.However, even in such a case, the fall itself remains as a record in the Apple Watch.
Also, if you are conscious of falling and want to call for help, tap the "Call Emergency Call" on the screen."Emergency call service" varies from country to country and region, but in Japan, it leads to 119.
2) If there is no response for 1 minute, a 30 second countdown will start.
The Apple Watch waits for only one minute to respond to the fallen wearer.If there is no reaction for one minute, judge that the wearer is in a situation where it is impossible to move and move on to the next action.First, start a 30 second countdown, and at the same time hit your wrist.You may return to sane with this action, such as when you fall or fall.
In addition, it sounds a warning sound.If you leave the warning sound, the volume will gradually increase, so you can expect the effect of not only the person but also the surrounding people.If there is no reaction after 30 seconds, Apple Watch performs the following action:
3) Automatically contact the emergency call service
The first minute after the fall detection is the weight time to confirm with the person.Then notify the person and the surrounding area for 30 seconds.If there is still no reaction, it will be a serious situation and no one will help the surroundings, and will automatically carry out the 119 call.
In the United States, such as the United States, if an emergency call service equivalent to 119 can receive text messages, the information registered in the medical ID and the current position (latitude longitude) of the wearer (latitude and longitude) will be sent at the same time.。Unfortunately, it does not support this function in Japan.In response to the emergency call service, it will be played and conveyed in a voice message that the wearer has fallen.
This voice message continues to be played repeatedly until the wearer reacts.However, assuming that it is a conversation between the wearer and the nearby person, it is considered not to disturb the conversation by lowering the volume slightly after the second time.At the same time, a message will be sent to the emergency contacts registered in the iPhone Medical ID.
How about.The Apple Watch's fall detection function will automatically make 119 calls after 90 seconds, even if you fall in a place where there is no one and hit your head strongly and lose your mind.At the same time, the warning sounds are made to ask for help from the surroundings, and the relatives specified in the emergency contact information are notified of the facts.If a terminal that extracted only this function is sold, many people want to buy it.*Note 1
In fact, you can check some reports that your life was saved.Missouri's assistant officer, "Cesededi Botaron", crashed into the wall while driving on a highway, Apple Watch automatically contacted the emergency call service, and the rescue team arrived immediately.I got.Botaron says his memory at the time is ambiguous, and he may have lost his consciousness during his driving.
The case of Brendon Schneider, who lives in Long Island, New York, was a serious thing that could have been delayed if he had not installed Apple Watch.Schneider, who had been in an emergency outpatient due to severe abdominal pain, falls down in the bathroom and loses his consciousness by hitting his head strongly.It was discovered early by the send from Apple Watch, who detected his fall, to his father, who was accompanying him, was sent.As a result of the subsequent tests, an emergency surgery was performed, with his skull fracture and some hematoma."Apple Watch has saved my life," said Schneider, who survived.It can be said that Apple Watch, which was installed as a sportsman for fitness purposes, did unexpected results in important situations.*Note 2
About the actual setting method
In order to enable Apple Watch fall detection function and function properly, you need to set up some settings.It is possible to set it in a simple step, so it is recommended that you prepare in case of emergency.
Tap "My Watch" from the iPhone's "Apple Watch App" → Select "Urgent SOS" on the screen to enable "fall detection".If you are age 55 and over, this function is turned on by default.Make sure your medical ID and healthcare profile have the right age registered.In addition, the fall detection function can be set only when it is 18 years old or older.
Information such as emergency contacts required when the fall detection function runs is set from the "Healthcare App".Tap "Edit" of "Medical ID" on the iPhone and register information such as your date of birth.To add an emergency contact information, tap the addition button under the Emergency Contact.
In a case where the wearer has lost consciousness due to illness or accident, the function that can refer to medical information and emergency contacts is the "Medical ID" that can refer to medical information and emergency contacts without unlocking the iPhone.。Assuming such a case, if you want to present information, turn on the "display during locking".
■ Information, name, date of birth, illness and injury, information on the date of birth, allergies and reactions, information on medical memo and injury, and the intentions, weight, height, and emergency contact information for providing organs in use.
Since personal information is included, it is recommended that you judge and register yourself while trying to balance your privacy, and set the presence or absence of display.*Note 3
About the evolution of Apple Watch
When Apple Watch appeared, the notification function was the main, as many smartwatches were.In other words, it is an image that can be easily viewed by cutting out some of the iPhone functions.The main focus is on checking emails and incoming calls, checking the schedule, etc., and the users may have more "gadget lovers".Initially, Apple used a marketing method like a luxury fashion brand, and was attracting attention as a fashion item.
Since then, the functions of the fitness and healthcare fields have been greatly enhanced, taking advantage of the characteristics of "constantly adhered to the body."By constantly monitoring your heart rate and motor status, it has evolved as a new device different from the iPhone.At this stage, we have widely appealed not only as a gadget, but also as a device necessary for everyday life.
Further Watchos 8.In 1, the algorithm for falling detection has been greatly enhanced.Regarding the fall detection function of Apple Watch, I was worried that the strong impact during exercise and the actual fall could be clearly distinguished.If you play intense sports, you may actually fall down, and it feels annoying that the alert sounds or the 119th.Therefore, Apple has collected more than 1.3 million workouts from more than 150,000 users, and has introduced a new algorithm to distinguish serious fall and exercise.With this, it will be possible to exercise intensely even if the fall detection function is turned on.
Apple is a company that has created new devices with sophisticated designs and functions.Mac series as a personal computer.In addition, he has created various devices and its market on behalf of the iPhone that has "redefined telephone".However, such PCs and smartphones are currently mature devices, and the groundbreaking evolution that attracts attention is stagnant.
Compared to those devices, Apple Watch is a product that is still in the process of evolving, and it has the potential to transform into a "usable" tool with further additional functions and performance.I feel.From mere gadget products to tools that are very effective to protect your health and life, and cannot be replaced by others.The user base for the Apple Watch may have enough room to expand in the future.*Note 4
In this article, I summarized the "fall detection function" of Apple Watch.As you actually get older, there are many situations where you can stumble with a small amount of things, and it seems that this function alone makes sense to acquire Apple Watch.It was an opportunity to re -evaluate the value of Apple Watch as a tool for "protecting life", not a fashion item or a healthcare product.
