smedo developed a technology to seamlessly measure vital signs with no physical or optical contact within an estimated distance of up to 7 meters to the target.
Current Status
founded, trademark registered, hired employees, MVP (chip) is ready & works, PoC is done, medical certification process has started.
Market
B2B - as a reliable and cost-effective replacement for ECG systems
B2B - assisted living for elderly people with the freedom to move without cabling by monitoring 24/7 with our cutting-edge technology, saving time to nurses thanks to fully automatic report system.
B2C - Baby Monitoring system keep track of babies vital signs especially during night, giving the possibility to alarm and prevent SIDS
Problem or Opportunity
babies are under a risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome)
ECG needs wires, papers and HR
patients in hospitals needs to be wired and are tho limited in their movements
elderly people want to stay and live at home as long as it is possible but
cannot due to lack of necessary monitoring
Solution (product or service)
Smedo provides maximum freedom and comfort for personnel and patients and delivers accurate vital data with zero disruption. No wires, no restrictions, no effort. Smedo supervises defined areas and monitors the biometrics. Acoustic or digital alarms as well as insightful reports can be triggered when and where needed.
what smedo measures: heart rate heart variability heart sound respiration rate respiration variability blood pressure (in development) biometric identification (in development)
Competitors
manufactors of known baby monitoring systems with cameras
ECG manufactors
Sensors for assisted living (fall detection, alert buttons etc.)
Advantages or differentiators
For baby monitoring: We can track vital signs without cabling, giving the safety to parents that they are able to act in emergency cases
for ECG: Supplying a highly cost-effective, contactless cable-free ECG system to monitor vital signs 24/7 without HR interacting
Assisted living: Continuos tracking of vital signs can predict heart attacks and even epileptic attacks by pre-measuring them up to 30 minutes before they even happen. Adding fall detection and alert function without wearing any device.
Finance
We address various applications with our technology. Get in contact with us for further information.
Business model
we follow a revenue modell through device sales in addition with a software package (monthly fee/sub)
Money will be spent on
- medical ISO approval - sensor & software finalization - production preparation - 1. batch manufacturing - ongoing development for the next stages of the technology (biometric identification, blood pressure)
local authorities may delay permission for frequency usage in some target countries
Development may be delayed due to lack of investment. Entrance into market may be delayed so other developing companies may be the first to market then.
