This is the design document for AngelHack:
Our application tackles the problem of an unattended aging user being unable to contact help during an immediate fall or severe injury.
- Our design aims at contacting an emergency member under two conditions:
- If the user is unable to verify their condition after eight (8) minutes upon an immediate fall
- If the phone is left unintended for a user-set number of hours
- If the user is unable to verify their condition after eight (8) minutes upon an immediate fall
* Utilizes simple large words and recognizable color-coded icons for the elderly.
