This is Born®
A small fabric-wrapped sensor, about the size of a coffee mug. Sits on a shelf, plugs into the wall, sees the room with on-device AI. Low-resolution images, read on the device, discarded in milliseconds. No livestream. No faces sent anywhere.

Falls in seconds
Born sees the fall the moment it happens, opens a two-way line, and has a human responder talking to your parent in under three minutes. If they don’t answer, we call you. If you don’t answer, we dispatch help.

Low-res camera, processed on-device. No livestream. No frames stored.
The sensor
Small. Wall-mounted. Watches the room, not your parent.
A low-resolution camera, mmWave radar, and a speaker — packed into a device the size of a small picture frame. It mounts on a wall outlet or sits on a shelf, runs over your home Wi-Fi, and covers the room it’s in.

Fall detection

Privacy
A camera that can’t be used to watch.
Born uses a camera because some signals, like a fall, a posture change, or an empty chair at dinner, are easiest to see. It is not a security camera. It is engineered so that watching is impossible.
- 01.
Blurry by design.
Born’s camera captures a low-resolution image, enough to detect a fall or a body shape, not enough to recognize a face. You couldn’t read a watch on the wrist from across the room.
- 02.
Processed on the sensor.
The picture is read by AI running inside the device itself, then discarded in milliseconds. Frames never leave the room.
- 03.
No livestream, ever.
You can’t watch your parent through Born. Nobody can. We only send the signals that matter, like a fall, a long lie, or a missed routine. Never the video.
- 04.
Microphone only when called.
The speaker is two-way for emergencies, so a Born responder can speak to your parent after a fall. The microphone stays off until then. No always-on listening.
“She fell in the bathroom in February. Born had a person on the phone with her in under three minutes and an ambulance there in twelve. I don't want to think about where she'd be without it.”

The Born app
A single quiet message every morning.
How they slept. Whether the routine held. The one thing that wasn’t normal, if anything. No dashboards. No noise.
Questions families ask
The honest answers.
Born has a camera, but it can't be used to watch them. It captures a low-resolution image, enough to see a fall or a body posture, not enough to recognize a face. The image is read by AI inside the sensor and discarded in milliseconds. Nothing streams off the device. Nobody, not even Born staff, can view a live feed.
The sensor opens a two-way call through its speaker. A Born responder answers within seconds and speaks to your parent. If your parent doesn't respond, we call you. If you don't respond, we dispatch local emergency services. You hear about the fall in real time, not the next morning.
No. No watch, no pendant, no button to press. The sensor sits on the wall or a shelf and works the moment they walk into the room. That's the point, most elders refuse to wear medical alert devices. Born doesn't need them to.
Everything. One Born sensor (yours to keep), free shipping, the full Born service for life of the device: fall detection, two-way voice, mobility and sleep trends, a human at Born when it matters. No monthly bill, no surprise renewal, no upsell.
One per room you want covered. Most families start with two, living room and bedroom. That covers about 80% of the day. Add a kitchen or hallway sensor if you want denser coverage. Each sensor is independent: the system works fine with one, but more sensors mean a fuller picture.
Sensors ship in 2 to 3 weeks from order. Within 30 days of receiving Born, you can return the sensors for a full refund — no questions asked.
