ActiveProtective Information

ActiveProtective was conceived on the simple belief that most hip fractures can be prevented. Hip fractures are identified as one of the greatest medical crises around the globe. Yet, while many fall management solutions have existed for decades, they've always created a tradeoff between mobility and safety, while also being too obtrusive to everyday life and often going unworn. The Tango Belt by ActiveProtective was designed to determine serious hip-impacting falls prior to contact, giving it the ability to intervene by deploying an airbag to reduce fall impact forces. Contained in an unobtrusive hip belt, this technology is wearable without constraint - mastering the tradeoff between safety and mobility, motivating older adults to be more active and stay that way.
