L2M – Silver Vantage Software – Fall Detection

This project will validate the market and technical feasibility of Silver Vantage Software’s privacy-preserving thermal fall-detection system for senior care. The system uses small thermal sensors to detect falls automatically without recording identifiable images, protecting resident privacy while improving response times. Through this project, we will engage healthcare partners and facility operators to confirm product requirements, pricing expectations, and installation workflows while testing the performance of our current pilot devices in real-world environments. The outcomes will help refine the product specifications, identify key adoption barriers, and create a clear path from pilot validation to commercial rollout. This will directly benefit the partner organization by reducing risk, guiding manufacturing and partnership decisions, and ensuring strong product-market fit before large-scale production.
