The common belief is that emergencies in everyday (work) life are easy to detect. Even a smartphone can often determine whether a person is moving or motionless—and trigger an alarm if needed. But isn’t the smartphone often just lying somewhere out of reach, making it impossible to detect an emergency? And how well can such a device distinguish between motionlessness and focused, quiet work?
Why isn’t emergency detection always what it seems—and what does usability have to do with saving lives? Read our article to find out.

More than 100,000 occupational accidents occur every year in Austria, and more than eight times as many in Germany. Most of them are comparatively harmless, but a considerable number threaten health and life. This is often because an accident is discovered too late and help is provided too late. To prevent this from happening again, we have developed ANGEL.
