Abstract
A computer-implemented method for detecting medical emergency events may include, via one or more processors, data sensors, and/or transceivers: (1) obtaining sensor data indicative of kinetic actions of a user; (2) analyzing the sensor data to associate the sensor data with a one or more kinetic actions of the user; (3) comparing the one or more kinetic actions of the user with a model of kinetic actions to determine whether the one or more kinetic actions correspond with the model of kinetic actions, with the model being indicative of a medical emergency event; and (4) upon determining that the one or more kinetic actions correspond with the model, contacting medical emergency responders to request medical emergency services for the user. As such, medical emergency events being experienced by a user can be detected, and medical emergency responders may be quickly contacted to provide essential emergency medical services to the individual.
