Help for disoriented people
Alzheimer is a serious problem in modern societies. In France there are 860.000 cases and 160.000 new patients every year. In 2008 every family will be effected from this desease.

Medical Mobile and Orange have developed the Columba telephone bracelet which integrates mobile phone and geographic location technology in a watch-sized device that a patient can wear on the wrist. An alarm is signalled when a patient leaveslinks a safe area.

...this revolutionary technology is based on intelligent detection and alarm software, a GPS assisted geolocalisation system, and a GSM/GPRS transmitter-receiver that integrates a SIM card. Telephone communication and data transfer are realised via the Orange mobile network and the services of AXA Assistance.


Because of hands-free operation and loudspeaker you can also get in contact with the lost one.
