The Vivago Care 8001 wristwatch is one of the world’s first safety systems to automatically set off an alarm when the wearer is no longer capable of personally doing so. In contrast to conventional safety watches, it monitors the activities of its wearer continuously, thus ensuring quick help in emergency situations. What is more, this telemedicine solution looks like a normal watch and therefore does not interfere with the wearer’s daily life in any way.
Statement by the Jury
The watch’s large digital display is easy to read, even for elderly wearers. Its sporty, simple look harmonises well with almost any outfit and occasion.
