Hey,
is that Dad's heart?
Intelligent
wristwatch
allows unobtrusive monitoring of seniors’ health
Although elderly people acknowledge that they
can be extremely vulnerable in certain situations, they are understandably
reluctant to give up their independence – something that may be inextricably
linked to pride and self-esteem.
Enter
Exmovere LLC, a leader in physiological sensor technologies, which recently
announced plans to launch a new Bluetooth-enabled biosensor wristwatch
service called “Exmocare”,
designed to augment medical supervision of the elderly.
Says
company president David Bychkov: “Exmocare
enables elderly people to live, travel and even drive on their own, with their
families or loved ones having the additional comfort level of receiving nearly
real-time data about their heart-rate, activity and even emotions. Our wristwatch
system will let them know immediately if something’s out of the ordinary with
their loved one.”
The wristwatch
monitors its wearer’s pulse, heart rate variability, skin conductance, skin
temperature, and level of activity via built-in GPS and an accelerometer to
determine whether the subject is active, inactive or sedentary. (In other words,
the offspring of a bungy-jumping senior will immediately be alerted to the fact
that dad has just leapt off the Gouritz River bridge.)
It can
also be used for rudimentary assessments of emotional states, providing data on
when its elderly wearer is tranquil, relaxed, calm, alert, upbeat, full of
anticipation, down, worried, stressed, agitated or overstressed. The emotional
data monitored and reported by the Exmocare
wristwatch
is based upon established algorithms and calculations relied upon in the fields
of neuropsychology and biofeedback, says the company, and has reportedly yielded
accurate results (with a 25 per cent margin of error) in internal
testing.
But the
technology has applications that go way beyond the care of the elderly – for
example, in government agencies, and in the military.

Each
wristwatch
includes Windows, Windows Mobile and/or Pocket PC-compatible software,
processing user-configured alerts to families and care providers by SMS, e-mail
and/or instant messenger. Easy-to-interpret taskbar emoticons and graphs in each
care provider account display changes in the wearer’s emotional and physical
activity.
The
company makes the point that its products are not intended to diagnose, treat or
prevent any disease or condition.
