I think youll find theyre a lot more sophisticated than
simple impact sensors. Theyll be analysing movements
(or lack of) after sudden accelerations to see if they fit
the profile of a fall followed by immobility.

But can stuff up rather spectacularly.

No big deal if you are mentally competent but
presumably a serious problem with the gaga.

I'd like to try one but I always hated wearing watches
and havent bothered for decades literally now.

Yes I thought it might be more than that.
I was intrigued to learn that Apple have a fall detector in their
watches,
I wonder how reliable that is. One assumes you would not have it on if
doing
something like breaking up concrete or doing judo!
