A wearable with built-in fall detection, precise location, and two-way voice over LTE-M links mobile seniors and lone workers to monitoring centers indoors and outdoors.


Operators responsible for mobile seniors, lone personnel, Umbrella devices, fall events, emergency calls, indoor and outdoor location, monitoring centers, caregivers, and responders cannot continuously inspect every operating condition or developing fault. Periodic checks leave gaps between readings, while isolated local indicators provide limited history and context. A late response can cause downtime, safety exposure, equipment damage, or incomplete compliance evidence. Teams need timely measurements, clear exceptions, and a defined operating response.
Essence Umbrella Mobile Personal Emergency Response combines connected field data with application software. The wearable device captures button presses, built-in fall indications, precise supported location, battery and connection state, and two-way voice during an event. The mobile emergency workflow sends the event and location to configured monitoring services and supports live communication. Monitoring staff contact the user, cancel false alarms, notify caregivers, dispatch emergency responders, share location, and record the completed response.
Teams configure the monitored assets, users, and operating rules. The wearable device captures button presses, built-in fall indications, precise supported location, battery and connection state, and two-way voice during an event.
