This is how family.cards creates a connection to older relatives
Family.cards makes it possible to check the health status of your loved ones quickly and daily via video.
Each kit comes with a camera and microphone that attach to the TV so you can see your loved ones during the call.
Video calls offer the advantage that you can quickly and efficiently assess the general condition of your conversation partner.
The TV's volume control also makes conversations more pleasant for your conversation partner as hearing loss increases with age and simplifies communication between them.
Not necessarily - family.cards offers several ways to establish a connection:
internet connection
To connect to the Internet, you can use a Wi-Fi network available in your home or plug in a network cable.
mobile data card
If you do not have WiFi in your home, you can also transfer data using an external 4G SIM card.
Yes, because with family.cards we enable several ways of making calls:
- from mobile to TV
- from TV to mobile phone

So you don't have to wait for your relatives to call you. Instead, you can make a call to your relatives' TV from your smartphone at any time.
When a call comes in, the TV will automatically switch on and display the call. An incoming call will also be clearly displayed while the TV is in operation.
The call can be accepted on the TV using the "Accept" card provided. After the call, the device will return the TV to its original state.
No, family.cards runs on any TV with a standard HDMI connection. We supply you with all the components to connect the device quickly and securely to the user's TV.

We have developed family.cards for people who feel unsure about using technology or who have become unsure about using technical devices due to motor or cognitive limitations.
The control is done simply by placing the plastic cards on the card reader. They adhere slightly magnetically, fit well in the hand and display all actions clearly using images and text.
This makes it possible to use family.cards completely without using buttons and menus. Changing the settings or deleting content is therefore impossible, which significantly increases the openness towards family.cards among all users.

From personal experience
"Hi, I'm Teo. And I founded family.cards because I know what it means to wish your parents used a cell phone and were comfortable with it so you could check at any time whether they were OK. That's why I developed a solution that works on the TV and doesn't require any complicated technology."
