Small sensors are placed on objects within the home – such as prescription pill bottles or the refrigerator – to detect when the resident is taking medications, getting food, or leaving the home. Activity signals are sent from the sensors to Lively’s website (no Internet or Wi-Fi connection required), where the data is held for family members and caregivers to monitor.Data is also shared via smartphones and email, with notifications on any irregular activity. A printed LivelyGram mailer with photos and messages from family members and friends is automatically created twice a month for the adult in the home.
