Mobi
The Mobi
Whether limited in mobility, in case of (initial) dementia or disorientation - the Mobi serves as a faithful companion in everyday life and as a lifeline in case of emergency.
In addition to the walking stick, the rollator is a particularly popular choice for continuing to walk well despite significant mobility impairments. It was therefore clear to us that, in addition to the Smartstick networked walking stick, a mobile solution with a universal holder was needed to ensure safe mobility in old age for users of mobile walking aids.
Visually, the mobile adapter solution impresses with its slim, handy housing. Functionally, it has an integrated locating and alarm module. Thanks to this module, Mobi can determine its position to within a few meters via GPS. On the other hand, the smart adapter solution acts as a lifeline in emergency situations and alerts the contacts stored in the portal.
The Mobi concept consists of three aspects:
The product
Alarm emergency call
Pressing the button for a longer time sends an alarm.
Design
We have designed our Mobi with a user-friendly and appealing design in mind.
Easy handling
Our Mobi has been developed especially for elderly and demented persons and is therefore very easy to use.
The portal
Geofence
Virtual fence with variable perimeter. When a configurable zone is exceeded, the alarm is triggered.

Functions
A primary advantage of our Mobi is the integrated GPS and the associated localization function. The device records its position with an accuracy of up to 10 meters and transmits it to the connected portal. A quick glance at the map is all it takes to see the current location of the walker. Let yourself be found for your own safety - Europe-wide without additional costs.
The Mobi is equipped with a button. This also serves as a call for help button. Press the button for at least 3 seconds. An alarm message is automatically transmitted to the portal and sent by push message to the app or by e-mail to the contact persons stored in the portal. This function is possible worldwide* and is supported by a red illuminated LED and a beeping sound.
*For use outside of Europe, additional fees may apply!
The use of Geofence increases safe mobility in old age immensely. This is because Geofence makes it possible to draw a virtual fence with a variable radius of 500 meters or more around the device. Especially for people with a tendency to run away, this function serves as additional safety, as an alarm is automatically triggered and sent to the portal if the area is exceeded. Registered contact persons are informed immediately and can take direct action.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions
How does the Mobi work?
The concept for the Mobi consists of two aspects. Firstly, we have the device itself and secondly, we have the Portal, on which settings are made via the Internet. An Android app for managing the Portal can be installed via the Google Play Store. The senior usually uses the device and his/her contacts (family or other contacts) use the Portal or the smartphone. The senior does not need a smartphone/computer/fixed telephone line to use the Smartstick.
The device contains a chip that is connected to the Portal via GPS.
You can charge the Mobi with the included charging cable, which you can connect to a PC or standard plug.
Is the Mobi waterproof?
