The fall detection function we know from Apple Watch, could soon appear in other wearable devices from Applu. The newly published patent describes its use not only in headsets Vision Pro, but also in future smart glasses or even contact lenses. Fall detection uses an accelerometer and gyroscope to recognize a sudden hard fall. Apple Watch If a fall is suspected, they first gently tap their wrist, a prompt will appear with the option to contact emergency services or confirm that everything is OK. If the user is unresponsive and remains motionless for more than a minute, the watch will automatically call the emergency number and transmit the exact location and information that a fall has occurred and the user is unresponsive.

Apple According to the patent, the company is now considering how to use this feature in other forms of wearable electronics. The reason is the ability to monitor the state of the eyes. For example, whether they are open or closed, or the dilation of the pupils, which could help determine whether the user is conscious. Another advantage of devices with external cameras is the ability to provide rescuers with a view of the user's surroundings, or at least a description of them. This increases theancfor quick and accurate help even without the need for user interaction. Apple even imagines that similar systems could work in lenses with an integrated display that are worn directly on the eye. But this is only a patent that Apple may never be implemented. But it sounds really interesting.
