Aro
A glance is enough to know she's okay.
Aro watches over an ageing parent living on her own, and tells the people who love her what they actually need to know — in one sentence, not a wall of charts.
What it does
One screen, one answer
How she slept, whether she's moving about, whether she's taken her tablets. Checked between meetings in a couple of seconds.
A companion that phones her
A warm morning call, a gentle nudge about her medication, an evening check-in. It never gives medical advice — it listens, and it tells her family what it heard.
If something happens, it calls her first
A possible fall doesn't alarm the whole family straight away. Aro rings her and asks if she's alright. Only if she can't be reached, or says she needs help, does everyone else hear about it.
Everyone sees the same thing
Siblings, a neighbour, a paid carer — one circle, one shared picture, and a record of who checked on her and when.
Built on real data
The pendant hardware is still being built. Until it ships, Aro's health readings come from published research recordings of real adults aged 68 to 95 — heart rate from PhysioNet's Fantasia database, movement from HAR70+, sleep from Sleep-EDF, and wrist-worn fall data from WEDA-FALL. Nothing in the app is a randomly generated number.
Medication, calls and alerts are your household's own records from the moment you start. The sensor readings become hers when the pendant arrives.
