Use of technology in the care of the elderly population

Hello friends of the Project Hope community, I hope you are having a great week, as we can see, it is moving very fast, and soon we will be again- enjoying a great weekend. Just as the days go by very fast, so does life, every day we get older or older, it doesn't matter how you want to see it because in the end, we never get younger, that's the reality.

In view of this very real situation, it is important to consider it at a global level and what this would mean for the world in general. An increasingly aging population, where the current generations tend not to want to have children is more common, we are faced as a society with certain situations that must be considered, such as the care of the elderly. In this sense, science and technology are making important advances for the protection of this population.

Today I want to talk to you about a project that just this morning I saw, and that caught my attention very strongly. It is evident that when we become adults we lose skills in certain aspects of our lives, even in terms of strength and endurance, therefore, it is more than logical to think that in old age our strength, reflexes and balance suffer a great deterioration.

Considering this aspect and with the intention of protecting the elderly population from the effects of a fall, or at least minimizing these effects, the Chinese company called Suzhou Yidaibao Intelligent Technology Company has worked on a belt that can help in these effects.

This belt uses something similar to an airbag, the technology used in cars to minimize the risk of injury to drivers in traffic accidents, only in this case it is a belt, which inflates in a matter of 0.2 seconds, to prevent the body from hitting the ground directly, thus serving as a shock absorber.

Making this device has involved a lot of research, the use of a lot of science, to apply the technology and look for solutions, it is a clear example that technology is undoubtedly something important for society.

It is good to see how technology can be used for a constant social benefit, which for me is the most important thing in terms of its use. I hope this post has provided you with some new information.

Good week to all.
