All features › The live floor plan
Raw sensor data says “Sensor C fired.” A floor plan says “we think he’s near his chair in the living room.” You draw your parent’s home in the app in a few minutes, and from then on every motion event — live or historical — arrives as a place you recognize, not a letter you have to decode.
The floor plan is drawn right in the app: rooms as simple shapes, then the furniture that matters — the bed, the chair, the table — then a marker for where each motion sensor and camera sits. Room presets make an elder’s typical rooms quick to lay out, so a whole home takes minutes, not an afternoon.
The furniture isn’t decoration. Because you placed the chair on the plan, the system can say “near his chair” instead of “zone 3” — the plan is what turns sensor data into plain language.
The live view updates every 30 seconds. While motion in a room is fresh — under roughly fifteen minutes old — that room ripples on the plan. When the motion goes stale, the ripple stops.
That rule is strict on purpose: animation on this plan means recent activity, never decoration. A glance tells you which part of the house is alive right now — and a still plan tells you something too.
Once a plan exists, past motion events get their room labels filled in retroactively. History that used to read as a sensor letter becomes readable: “Kitchen, 7:42 AM” instead of “Sensor C, 7:42 AM.” You don’t lose the record you built before you got around to drawing.
Rooms can also be tagged as guarded spaces — the bathroom, say — so the system can track visits and transits to them, the rooms where knowing matters most.
Because the cameras are placed on the plan too, the dashboard can pick the camera covering the room where motion was last seen and show its latest still photo — the picture most likely to answer the question you were actually asking.
A compact, read-only version of the plan lives on the family dashboard, right above the camera thumbnails, so the glance and the picture sit together. The full editor lives on the Motion page, for the day you rearrange the furniture.
It’s not auto-generated. The family draws it, in a few minutes — and that’s a feature, not a shortcoming. You know which chair is his chair; no scanner does.
It’s not a tracking device on your parent. There’s no wearable, nothing to charge, nothing to forget. Motion sensors detect motion in a room — they don’t identify who is moving.
It doesn’t watch continuously. This isn’t a video feed of the house. The plan shows where motion was recent, and the cameras add a still photo when you want to look.
No. Rooms are drawn as simple shapes right in the app, and room presets make an elder’s typical rooms quick to lay out. Then you place the furniture — the bed, the chair, the table — and mark where each motion sensor and camera sits. A few minutes is enough.
The live view updates every 30 seconds. A room ripples while motion there is fresh — under roughly fifteen minutes old — and the ripple stops when the motion goes stale. Animation on this plan always means recent activity, never decoration.
No. There’s no wearable and nothing to charge or carry. Motion sensors detect motion in a room — they don’t identify who is moving. Because you placed the furniture on the plan, the app can put it in plain language: “we think he’s near his chair.”
Once a plan exists, past motion events get their room labels filled in retroactively. History that used to read as a sensor letter becomes readable — “Kitchen, 7:42 AM” — all the way back.
