Anto Medcare

Problem Statement

Using sensors and automated alerts, the system provides timely information that enables preventive action and supports ongoing self-monitoring and care management.

The project aims to support wheelchair users with disabilities and their caregivers by:

Improving health, safety, and overall wellbeing;
Enabling wheelchair users to monitor their condition and take preventive action more independently;
Reducing the risk of pressure injuries and falls through early detection and itnervention; and
Increase the self-confidence and participation in daily activities.
