SAN FRANCISCO — CAN Mobilities, the innovative leader in data-driven care solutions, today announced an addition to its CAN Go smart cane – the Data-Driven Fall Detection. This cutting-edge AI-driven technology, designed to enhance the safety and independence of users, allows the CAN Go smart cane to detect falls in real-time and automatically contact a caregiver or loved one for assistance.

"The new smart features in the CAN Go, including the AI that detects falls and contacts caregivers, will significantly improve the lives of individuals facing mobility challenges. It facilitates timely assistance by calling for help automatically if the person cannot do so themselves," said Dr. Nick Athens, a renowned health and wellness expert.

Falls are still a concern among cane users. Although the physical cane itself is the best tool to prevent falls, CAN Fall Detection utilizes AI and machine learning algorithms to detect and analyze falls in real time, providing users with an added layer of support, all in the palm of their hands. Caregivers receive instant alerts upon cane fall detection, allowing for targeted interventions and preventive measures based on data-driven insights.

The CAN Go smart cane, known for its sleek design and robust functionality, is redefining mobility aid technology for the 21st century. Integrated seamlessly with the CAN cloud platform, the CAN Go offers innovative care solutions for users, family members, and caregivers, ensuring safety and mobility. Real-time notifications provide peace of mind, and regular updates introduce new features and enhancements, maximizing the cane's use and keeping users at the cutting edge of mobility and safety tech.

"We designed the CAN Go with over-the-air updates in mind from the beginning. We are our users' biggest fans and advocates, and we will always leverage the latest advances in AI and health science research for their benefit. The CAN Go smart cane will grow smarter over time as we continue to release new intelligent capabilities," said Ahmad Alghazi, CEO and Founder of CAN.

The CAN Go smart cane also offers an array of enhanced safety features, providing users with confidence in their daily lives. The built-in cellular service for emergencies ensures easy contact, while high-quality speakers, an embedded microphone, and reliable LTE technology make communication effortless. GPS location mapping helps pinpoint users' locations for swift assistance, and if the cane is misplaced, GPS technology facilitates quick retrieval. Additionally, the modern ergonomic design, bright LED flashlight, activity tracking, and goal setting make the CAN Go an essential tool for safety and wellness.

Over time, the CAN Go evolves into much more than a smart cane. It transforms into an ally, profoundly impacting the lives of CAN Go users, enhancing safety, and promoting an active lifestyle, all while streamlining the caregiving process. The Data-Driven Fall Detection, available in beta now, can be enabled by CAN Go users via the CAN cloud platform. CAN will continue to enhance the connection between CAN Go users and their caregivers, offering high-quality and cost-effective care solutions, even from a distance, while providing a sense of peace and reassurance.
