This button is illuminated if the device is activated, thereby giving a clue to someone unaware of the user interface as to how to turn it off. The button is on the side so it is difficult to press unintentionally. On the side of the device is a green button that stops and resets the system. Due to its size it is very difficult to miss even in total darkness. An oversized red button at the top sets off everything. Usage of the device The device is purposely made to be very easy to use. Finally, if the device is not deactivated within 20 seconds, a call is automatically made to a relative for further assistance. The siren is used as his condition means that he might not be able to shout for help. Additionally, it allows him to reach for something or turn on the room’s lights. The light has an immediate positive effect on the psychology of a person in need, especially my grandpa who likes to sleep with all lights off. Once the panic button is pressed, a bright light illuminates the room. The device, placed next to the bed, has a few special features. Solution I decided to do something about it and came up with a ‘panic button’.

Sometimes he will get short of breath during the night, wake up and stay awake due to anxiety. Motivation The motivation for this project came from my grandpa, who suffers from poor lung capacity. The final build: You can find a link to a gallery with all the pictures from the project here Please excuse the bizarre formatting, it is copy-pasted from an email. In summary it is an emergency button for the elderly and part of it is a mobile phone 'hack' that might be useful elsewhere. Hi all, I am putting this project out there openly - if anyone decides to build something similar that would be fantastic.
