About

Pontosense leads in wireless sensing for elderly care, using non-invasive technology for 99% accurate fall detection. Our Silver Shield provides contactless, 24/7 monitoring, movement analysis and habits to prevent falls and enhance safety. We solve intrusive, unreliable monitoring issues, offering caregivers real-time insights and peace of mind through innovative, trusted solutions.

Founders Bio

Founding team with 500 patents, including inventing the modern smart phone antenna system. Prior to Pontosense, the founders bootstrapped multiple companies to IPOs, worth over $5B in market cap, including Sunway (SHE:300136). That experience has been forged into this RADAR product, which performs at 40dB better than market solutions - representing a 10,000x accuracy advantage.

Origin Story

As we age, falls increase, affecting families deeply. Pontosense’s founders, moved by personal loss, saw falls reduce quality of life long-term. Rejecting invasive cameras and unworn wearables, they created a short-range radar to prevent falls, preserve privacy, and help families enjoy more time together.
