Senior alarm

[Danny_Mertens]

Hi,

I I’m thinking to build a senior alarm for my mother, someone already did this, have ideas, tips how to achieve this?

I off course looked to the commercial systems already available but there not really cheap +€300 (https://www.jane.be/nl/pricing) and then you off course also stil have a monthly cost from about €15 seems a little over the top for this to be honest

I’m looking to build something as for instance a Jane system: https://www.jane.be/nl/hoe-werkt-het

So my idea is the buy a Homey, place in every room a small switch, but I would also like some kind of key fob or something that she can wear on here wrist, or on a small chain.

Setup as I see now, will be

• Homey
• Aquara switch for the rooms (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32964048334.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.bff85313CzPUzf&algo_pvid=cdfc0e65-bb91-465e-b0d5-97e7d971c95c&algo_expid=cdfc0e65-bb91-465e-b0d5-97e7d971c95c-0&btsid=3de41ce8-b3d5-44dd-bdbf-8de4dadf65a6&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_3,searchweb201603_53)
• some kind of key fob, or small button that can be put on a small chain or something (any idea what I can use for this?)
• send a message to Telegram bot or something to my and my wife’s smartphone
• any idea of its also possible to for instance let my google hubs, mini announce an alert, or play a soundboard file on my speakers (Sonos) in my house?

Welcome to hear any ideas, tips how we can fine tune this more, but I think that it should be possible to build a nice system this way

Also if someone has a homey they want to sell in Belgium, Netherlands always interested

Thanks!

I didn’t know this one but looks very interesting, thanks!

There is off course still some kind of monthly service cost (https://www.spottergps.com/werking/prepaid-gebruik/ ) but €5 is a lot more acceptable and here you got a lot more for that money also so looks like a very nice option!

Yep but there is also the possibility to use Skype and then it’s free it seems: https://www.spottergps.com/goedkoper-bellen-via-skype/

2 years of service included in the price.
tracking every 10 min and a panic button for a notification in the app.

great advantage; it also works outdoor, is not relying on WIFI, Homey, zigbee to work.

For safety applications i would always choose for “active” signals.

Thanks but this will not work in Belgium I think, but also very nice solution to be honest!

Thanks!

voor zover ik er nu tijd aan besteed heb moet je dan alleen nog zelf een applicatie schrijven (of vinden).
Ik weet niet of er voor dit device al iets generieks bestaat.

Hello,

I have got a SOS Button for my father. This he can wear and when he pushes the button, you can decide with a flow what should happens.
The link to the shop where i got this is https://www.robbshop.nl/enkele-panic-keyfob-z-wave-plus-neo-coolcam?sqr=sos&
