For families
Know they're okay, without watching them.
If a parent lives alone, a fall on the kitchen floor with no way to call for help is the thing that keeps you up at night. EMOTE4D is built for exactly that moment — and it does it without putting a video feed of their daily life on anyone's server.
The honest trade-off
The usual options each ask you to give something up.
A pendant they have to wear
It works only if it's on them, charged, and they can still press it after a fall. The ones who need it most are the ones who leave it on the nightstand.
A camera you watch
A normal home camera trades the worry for a different one: now there's a live view of your parent's bathroom and bedroom sitting on a company's servers. Most people can't bring themselves to put one in.
What EMOTE4D does instead
A camera that turns your parent into a stick figure, and forgets the rest.
The device sees the room, works out body position on the spot, and throws the picture away. There is no recording to leak and no feed for anyone — including us — to watch.
Nothing to wear. Nothing to charge. Nothing to remember.
It sits in the corner and does its job whether or not anyone thinks about it.
If a fall happens
You get a text. Quickly, but not falsely.
A short wait, on purpose
When the system thinks it has seen a fall, it takes a second look to confirm the person is on the ground before it does anything. That pause is the difference between a real alert and a false one.
An SMS to the people you choose
Once a fall is confirmed, EMOTE4D sends a text message to the caregivers on the list — you, a sibling, a neighbour down the road. A plain message, not an app you have to keep open.
In plain words
The short answers, for when they ask.
Putting anything in a parent's home is a conversation. These are the four facts to bring to it.
- There is nothing to wear, nothing to charge, nothing to remember to put on.
- No video is ever stored or sent. The picture is discarded on the device, in the room.
- There is no facial recognition. It reads posture and movement, never who someone is.
- If a fall is confirmed, a plain text message goes to the people they choose.
Before you sign up
Where things honestly stand.
EMOTE4D is pre-launch. The first pilot is in 2026 in Neepawa and Brandon, Manitoba, so the earliest spots are for families there. It is a safety aid, not a medical device, and not a replacement for checking in on someone you love.
If that's the kind of thing you've been looking for, adding your family to the waitlist below is the way to be first in line. Tell us a little about your situation and where you are, and we'll reach out as pilot spots open up.
