<p>After my experience with making the chrome extension and other scripts that were very useful it got me wondering about other low hanging fruit that AI can solve for people with disabilities, one of those issues is a very common one, the need for a fall alarm. </p>
<p>A lot of people with disabilities need to have an alarm for when they need help, it's often life saving because when you fall and no one is around to help it can get deadly very quickly. there's a lot of products that offer a solution for this issue but most of them are extremely clunky and hard to use.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>I bought one from Amazon that was a string you tie to your shirt and when you fall from the wheelchair the string gets pulled and an alarm goes off, it got me thinking "is this really the cutting edge tech for saving the lives of people with disabilities?" it was useless and did not work with my wheelchair setup.<br /></p>
<p>My hope is with this rapid AI advancement we can soon have tools that monitor my seating position from a camera and automatically ring an alarm whenever it detects me sitting unusually, my seating position is often very rigid and does not change often, so it would be trivial for an AI to detect when something is unusual which means I've fallen or I'm not in the right position  </p>
