About
Kytera has developed a smart remote caregiver solution that provides insight into seniors' activity at home. The solution includes a home system that collects data, a mobile app for family members, and a dashboard for professional caregivers. Kytera's wellness monitoring seeks to understand the senior's activities to track parameters related to key daily routines such as sleep, nutrition, time spent out of the house, and daily activity. The data is analyzed automatically to detect behavioral symptoms of physical and mental deterioration. The system provides insight with clear, easy-to-understand wellness reports, coupled with actionable recommendations for family members and professional caregivers. Kytera's technology also provides context for the senior's activities, allowing users to accurately distinguish between regular activities and an emergency situation. The solution offers three circles of protection for emergency detection: an emergency button; advanced fall detection that detects hard and soft falls through an understanding of activity context; and routine-based distress detection, which detects emergencies based on deviation from learned routines using machine learning.
