for fall detection systems in North America. The fall detection systems market in the U.S. is
expected to increase from the current estimated value of US$ 124.7 Mn in 2015 to US$
175.0 Mn by 2021, registering a CAGR of 5.8% over the forecast period. Rising number of
falls among the geriatric population, increasing demand for fall detection systems due to
their superior effectiveness, and increased focus on maintaining the superior quality of life
are factors expected to boost overall demand for fall detection systems, worldwide, in the
near future.
By product type, the fall detection system market is segmented into automatic fall detection
systems and manual fall detection system. The automatic fall detection systems segment is
expected to dominate the overall fall detection systems market by the end of 2021. The
segment is projected to register an above average growth rate over the forecast period.
By sensing modalities, the fall detection system market is segmented into wearable and
non-wearable segments. Among these, the wearable segment is expected to dominate the
overall market by 2021, owing to the ease of use and portability of these devices and rising
number of falls among the aging population and increasing adoption of new technologies by
the elderly to live independently and safely at home.
By technology, fall detection system market is segmented into GPS systems, mobile phones,
and sensors. Among these, sensors segment is expected to gain high demand in comparison
to all another segment over the forecast period.
By end user, fall detection system market is segmented into home care settings and senior
assisted living facilities. Among these, home care settings segment is expected to remain
the most attractive, and is estimated to account for 69.8% share of the global by 2015 end,
and further increase to 72.1% by 2021.
Key market participants covered in the report include Koninklijke Philips N.V, LifeWatch USA,
Tunstall, ADT Security Services, Medical Guardian LLC, MobileHelp, Bay Alarm Company, and
MariCare Oy.

Market History:
Rising prevalence of chronic disease and increasing number of stroke cases among geriatric
population is leading to increasing number of falls. One of the main causes of falls among
older population is rising incidence of Alzheimer. It has been estimated that 12.5% of people
65 years and older and 45% of people 85 years and older suffer from Alzheimer’s. Also,
nearly twice as many women as men suffer from the disease. Fall detection systems such as
automatic fall detection systems and manual fall detection systems are used to alert
emergency services in the event of a fall. Such devices have the potential to mitigate some
of the adverse consequences of a fall. These systems can be classified as wearable pendant
that can be attached to a watch or a necklace. Certain fall detection sensors can be clipped
onto the user’s pocket, while some fall detection systems providers also provide fall
detection cellular phone, floor sensors, wall sensors and cameras.
The global fall detection systems market has been estimated to account for a market value
of US$ 335.4 Mn in 2015, and is projected to witness stable growth across all global regions,
due to rising incidence of chronic diseases, proliferation of smartphones and rising
healthcare spending.
Drivers and Trends
The primary growth driver for the fall detection systems is rising geriatric population opting
for enhanced medical alert services. Global ageing population is increasing rapidly. Between
2000 and 2050, the geriatric population is expected to account for 11% – 22% of the overall
population, growing from 605 million to 2 billion over the same period. Furthermore,
increased penetration of smartphones among geriatric population and technological
advancements creates a favorable environment for growth of the global fall detection
system market over the forecast period.

Manufacturers of fall detection systems are more focused on integrating advanced
technologies such as GPS and cellular communication in order to maintain competitive
advantage in the market. Technological advancements have led to integration of innovative
solutions in fall detection devices that automatically trigger an alarm even if the user is
unable to press the button due to loss of consciousness or injury.
Rising overall healthcare expenditure is also expected to contribute to the overall growth of
the fall detection system market in the near future. Falls have an adverse economic impact
on the immediate family, community, and society. Healthcare costs associated with falls in
older age are increasing significantly across the world.
Regional Analysis
The market in North America is expected to expand at the highest CAGR in terms of value
over the forecast period. Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and rising healthcare
spending are factors that are expected to further drive demand for fall detection system and
thus, lead to standardization of the market in the region. Also wide availability of free people
locator applications is adversely affecting adoption of paid subscription services for fall
detection systems. Cost issues and lack of reimbursement policies are expected to slightly
hamper growth of the market in North America during the forecast period.
Europe is the second-most lucrative destination for fall detection systems. High costs of
device and lack of awareness regarding use and adoption of fall detection system is
expected to affect overall market for fall detection systems in the region over the next few
years. The Europe market is expected to expand at a stable CAGR over the forecast period.
Major companies based in Europe are looking to expand their base outside Europe to better
cater to growing global demand for fall detection systems.
The Asia Pacific market is expected to expand at the highest CAGR, followed by North
America, Europe, and Latin America over the forecast period. The Middle East & Africa
accounts for a nominal share of the overall fall detection system, but is expected to evolve
over time with increasing technological advancements and rising awareness through
promotional campaigns.
