Description
In an emergency it would be handy if the watch could help the wearer in some way.
Here are some ideas:
-
Save emergency info for first responders (blood group, medications...). The info could be pushed by the companion app.
-
When you are feeling bad and could fall unconscious, click an SOS button that makes the screen blink red to draw the first responder's attention. Tapping would reveal emergency info.
-
An emergency button sending an SOS notification to the companion app via Bluetooth. (The companion app could then call a certain contact etc.)
-
Let the white-screen flashlight blink the SOS morse code • • • – – – • • •
Of course, that isn't easy to implement but my point is just that a wearable device should have some kind of emergency help.
