Sensor to notify waking up and leaving the bed “mittell”

見守る安心、見守られる安心

病院や介護施設で、施設利用者の状態を識別通知し、転倒や俳諧を防止する、起床、離床センサーのデザインプロジェクトです。施設利用者を監視されている感覚にさせないため、カメラや赤外線LEDはスモークパネルで隠し、硬いイメージになりがちな放熱フィンは背面内部に配置しました。工業製品の硬く冷たいイメージを抑えるため、柔らかいアール形状を採用し、「意識させない造形」を目標にしています。

A sense of security to watch over and be watched over

This is a design project for a wake-up/leave sensor that identifies and notifies the status of facility users in hospitals and nursing homes to prevent falls and haikyo. The camera and infrared LEDs are hidden by a smoked panel, and the heat radiation fins, which tend to give a hard image, are placed inside the back of the device to prevent the users from feeling as if they are being monitored. In order to avoid the hard, cold image of industrial products, we adopted a soft, curved shape, aiming for a “form that does not make conscious”.
