Product Information
Bide is a bedside device designed to help older adults and individuals at risk of falls live safely and independently at home. Night-time falls are a common concern for many families, often affecting confidence and independence. Bide provides reassurance for both users and their loved ones through a simple, supportive approach.
Using discreet sensors, Bide detects when a user wakes during the night and automatically plays a pre-recorded voice message from a family member, friend, or caregiver before they get out of bed. Hearing a familiar and reassuring voice can encourage users to move more carefully, helping to improve confidence and support safer movement at night.
The device also provides gentle illumination, activating in a traffic-light sequence before delivering a soft background light for up to 10 minutes. This improves visibility and helps users navigate their surroundings more safely in low-light conditions.
Bide allows caregivers and family members to record personalised messages, making it especially valuable for people experiencing mild cognitive impairment or the early stages of dementia. Familiar voices can provide comfort, reassurance, and clear guidance during moments of confusion or disorientation. The device can store up to five customised messages tailored to individual needs.
Designed for simplicity, Bide automatically activates in the dark and remains on standby until movement is detected after a period of inactivity. With no batteries, no Wi-Fi, and no complex setup required, Bide is always ready to provide support when it is needed most.
