Standing by
Stillwatch is watching.
It learns when someone normally moves around their own home, hour by hour, and notices when they stop. The hard part is not spotting silence. It is telling they went out from they stopped, because from outside the house both look exactly the same.
It works from Ring motion and door events, for one person living on their own. No video is requested, received or stored, and it cannot see inside the home. It does not detect falls. What it detects is stillness that is unusual for this household, and it says what made it unusual.
A recorded day, so you can see how it reads one before this home has a history of its own.
Reading

Quiet she normally has
The longest stillness in an ordinary day, by the hour it begins. Hours at night, minutes at midday, learned from her own weeks.
Her habits
Cameras
The bars beside each camera are the hours it normally sees her, learned from her own weeks. An empty row is a camera she rarely passes at any hour.
Cameras on a way in or out show when somebody has left the house. Cameras inside show that somebody is moving about. Stillwatch reads only whether movement was seen and at what time. It does not request, receive or store video, and it cannot see inside the home.
Which also means it watches the house, not the person. A camera cannot tell who walked past it, so a home with two people in it is outside what this can judge. Where two rooms move at once, Stillwatch says so on the day rather than guessing.
