New In-Home, No-Camera Technology Changes the Game for Family & Caregivers
EDINA, MN (May 16, 2024) – Nomo Smart Care (Nomo) debuts its powerful in-home safety technology, providing valuable insight into loved ones’ daily activity and health information. Nomo enables caregivers to remotely check on Mom’s normal motion in her home day and night. It also allows caregivers to understand routines and notifies them when patterns suddenly change, all while acting as a privacy friendly senior monitoring system.
The technology goes well beyond simple potential fall detection. And there are no cameras. The Nomo Smart Care system is made of three basic components: the hub, satellites, and tags. Working together, these tools actively track movement, ensuring families know how to monitor elderly residents without cameras safely and effectively. Information is seamlessly shared through the easy and intuitive Nomo app.
Nomo is easy to install, most within 15 minutes or less. Place the hub in a central location in Mom’s home. The hub, along with satellites acting as advanced Senior Monitoring Systems, detect motion. The hub also provides two-way voice communication, easily activated through the app. Tags detect movement. Place tags on any surface, like doors and drawers, and they report when they move. Tags can also be worn as potential fall-detection pendants and serve as emergency alert buttons. Or, install tags in high-risk areas, such as the bottom of stairs and in showers. All tags are shower-proof.

How Nomo Tracking Works
Using the free-to-download app, family members and caregivers can check on normal motion in real time. Patterns have power. It’s easy to see when Mom’s day is as expected, and when it's not. Mom didn't open the medicine cabinet? No movement in the kitchen this morning? Finding reliable ways regarding how to monitor elderly residents without cameras means looking for these broken patterns.
The user can also set triggers to be alerted when specific activities occur or when expected activities don't occur. If an anomaly is detected by the smart home sensors for the elderly, Nomo can alert caregivers immediately or quickly escalate to provide seamless connections to 9-1-1 services.
Combining Normal Motion sensors with an easy-to-operate app, Nomo technology allows caregivers to know what’s happening in the home, and exactly when something that should happen, didn’t happen.
“Nomo is simple but also really powerful. By checking normal motion, you get information from inside the house and the peace of mind knowing that a loved one’s day is on track. That’s simple. But turn that around, you can also quickly see when daily life isn’t quite right and take action. That’s powerful. Put all that in a system that’s affordable and easy to install, and you have a game changer, you have Nomo,” said Tim Sherno, Chief Marketing Officer, Nomo Smart Care.
Know More, Worry Less With Biometric Data Information
Motion and movement patterns are just one piece to the health and safety picture. Nomo is partnering with medical monitoring manufacturers to capture important biometric data that alerts caregivers to any fluctuations in Mom’s temperature, blood oxygen, and blood pressure. Implementing a biometric monitoring home care platform allows families to access professional-grade vitals tracking directly from home.
These daily health metrics can be extremely helpful to Mom’s medical team, giving them a fuller picture of her health and an opportunity to flag any concerning trends before her next in-office visit.
The Nomo Smart Care Essential Care Kit retails for $250 and is available at Walmart.com, Bestbuy.com, Amazon.com, and on nomosmartcare.com. If families are searching for how to monitor elderly residents without cameras, this kit provides unmatched clinical peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to monitor elderly residents without cameras?
The most effective way is by using Passive Infrared (PIR) ambient sensors. These discreet wall-mounted devices detect body heat and movement in a room. This allows the system to definitively know if a person is safely moving around the house without ever recording a visual image, preserving the senior's absolute privacy and dignity.
What does "Normal Motion" actually mean in elder care?
Normal Motion refers to the established daily routine of the senior. The Nomo app learns what time they usually wake up, how long they typically spend in the bathroom, and when they open the refrigerator. If any of these patterns break, the system flags it as an anomaly and alerts the caregiver.
What makes Nomo a privacy friendly senior monitoring system?
Because the entire system operates without a single camera or active microphone (unless you manually trigger a 2-way call), it guarantees complete privacy. The system tracks raw data (door openings, room activity) rather than visual surveillance, making it highly acceptable for independent seniors.
Does the Nomo system require a Wi-Fi connection?
Yes, the central Nomo hub requires a standard home Wi-Fi connection to transmit the motion data to the caregiver's smartphone app. The individual satellite sensors and tags connect wirelessly to the hub via a secure sub-gigahertz frequency.
Can I use a smart blood pressure monitor with the Nomo app?
Yes. Nomo has specifically partnered with Beurer North America to integrate a clinical-grade biometric monitoring home care platform directly into the ecosystem. Caregivers can view their loved one's blood pressure, temperature, and blood oxygen levels directly inside the exact same app they use for motion alerts.
