About
Considering the presence of an AI in our world, the aim of this
project was to develop a product and understand which are the
features that need to be taken care of while designing.
Given a brief on the large world health care we developed focused on
elders and designed Careby.
Careby is a monitoring system for middle stage Alzheimer’s patients
which aims to help family caregivers to create a proper routine with
the correct activities and connect them with knowledgeable people
when needed.
The product is a small monitoring system that the caregiver places
on himself or on a surface facing the person to be cared for. It
detects signs of emotional distress and lacks attention.
It utilizes AI to understand: face gaze, body position to detect
engagement level and speech tone to detect emotion. The connection
with people is implemented in the app exploiting collective
intelligence algorithms to find the most knowledgeable user to have
the best help in the situation.
