Many people suffer from Epilepsy and are at risk of sudden death. While there are a few commercial products available for smart watches to notify contact(s) if the wearer has a tonic clonic seizure, they are closed apps, limited to their hardware and usually are subscription services with most carers having to foot the ongoing expenses.
Any developers who know anyone with epilepsy and or social empathy up to bringing forth a project please?
At it's most basic I would think the sensors in the watch could sense repetitive unusual arm movements and heart rate change that trigger a connection to their mobile phone with an optional notification alarm sound and sends an SMS to their carer(s) with GPS location of the affected.
