HSINCHU, Dec. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), Taiwan's largest and one of the world's leading high-tech applied research institutions, invites you to its CES 2025 booth 8430, North Hall, LVCC, and its event website to view its innovations in wellness and smart medical tech. ITRI also invites you to experience its exhibits at CES Unveiled Las Vegas, Shoreline Exhibit Hall, Mandalay Bay Convention Center two days before the CES show. A video preview of ITRI's innovations is available here.

ITRI's CES 2025 highlight technologies include iSleePad, a smart sleep pad designed for users of all ages, providing comfort and sleep monitoring for both home and medical applications; KneeBO, a portable knee-joint exoskeleton designed for lower-limb muscle training and walking improvement; the AI Badminton Trainer, an innovation that utilizes advanced AI image analysis and data inference techniques to enhance players' training and performance; and the High-Privacy AI Digital Caregiver, an AI-based remote monitoring system designed to track vital signs, bed exits, falls, and prolonged inactivity.

WHAT:

Wellness tech

    --  iSleePad is an advanced sleep pad featuring ITRI's Low Power Microwave
        Sensor (LPMS) technology for safe and effective sleep monitoring.
        Designed for all ages, it tracks heart rate, breathing and sleep
        position without adhesive patches. It also provides real-time alerts for
        bed exits to enhance safety and promotes deep sleep with its Schumann
        wave mode. Easy to use, iSleePad can be directly installed on existing
        bedding. With high detection accuracy, contactless sensing and a
        smartphone app that displays real-time data and long-term physiological
        records, iSleePad ensures user comfort and supports sleep monitoring
        both at home and for medical care.
    --  iPetSuite, a pet's version of iSleePad, utilizes the same LPMS
        technology to provide safe and effective contactless sleep monitoring
        for dogs and cats. It tracks a pet's heart rate, breathing and sleep
        position, and can be directly used or installed on existing pet beds.
        iPetSuite includes a smartphone app that displays real-time data and
        long-term physiological records. It can be applied at home, in
        veterinary hospitals or pet hotels, offering insights into the pets'
        overall health and giving pet owners peace of mind.
    --  KneeBO, a portable knee joint exoskeleton, is designed for lower-limb
        muscle training and walking improvement. This innovation provides
        strength support for individuals with knee joint degradation. With a
        lightweight design of just 1.5 kg and quick-release buttons, users can
        put it on within one minute, making it perfect for daily activities.
        KneeBO employs compliant control algorithms and an inertial measurement
        unit for automatic function switching and smooth movement tracking. It
        serves as an assistive mobility technology for gait training.
    --  HipBO is an independent lightweight hip joint function assistance device
        derived from lower-limb exoskeleton robots. The extremely lightweight
        design is convenient for daily use to assist people with hip joint
        functional impairment. It weighs less than 3 kilograms and uses a
        compliant control algorithm for power assistance and smooth movements.
        HipBO provides walking action reminders and guidance and can be used for
        gait training and leisure sports such as hiking and walking.
    --  The AI Badminton Trainer utilizes advanced AI image analysis and data
        inference techniques to enhance players' training and performance. Its
        compact design features vertically stacked chips that boost signal speed
        and reduce the need for multiple devices. A high-speed video camera
        captures player movements, and the data including swing posture and
        hitting position is sent to a cloud platform. Gen AI then analyzes the
        skills and provides instant feedback with personalized training
        programs. This technology is already being used in gym centers, setting
        a new benchmark for AI-driven sports training.

Smart medical technologies

    --  The High-Privacy AI Digital Caregiver is a remote monitoring system
        designed to track vital signs, bed exits, falls and prolonged
        inactivity. Its millimeter wave radar and thermal imaging technologies
        ensure comfort and privacy, making it ideal for health monitoring in
        clinics, hospital wards, nursing homes and private residences. When
        detecting falls and abnormal heat sources, it sends alerts and prompts
        caregivers to provide timely care, reducing emergency response time from
        one hour to just one minute. This telehealth solution enhances the
        safety of the elderly and addresses the shortages of health workers.
    --  MedBobi is a smart medical assistant system that uses multimodal
        generative AI and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) technology to
        rapidly create medical reports from voice input and other data. It can
        understand up to 96 languages such as English, Mandarin, Taiwanese,
        Japanese, Spanish, French and Thai and can convert speech into text,
        reducing medical staff's administrative work time by 75%. The system
        integrates voice input, pathological images and patient records to
        provide AI-powered personalized medical recommendations. Additionally,
        MedBobi features a professional dementia database, allowing users to
        better understand the disease through text-based Q&A and obtain
        personalized care plans.
    --  The Intelligent Medical Assistance Solution (iMAS) integrates multiple
        lightweight and portable medical devices to offer a comprehensive
        telemedicine solution for patients with limited access to healthcare.
        Its intelligent medical imaging technology aids in diagnostic
        interpretation, enabling physicians to provide remote diagnoses.
        Physicians can monitor patient conditions in real time, helping to
        prevent treatment delays. During remote visits, physicians can easily
        carry the portable iMAS to deliver swift diagnosis and care. iMAS serves
        as a "homespital" solution that seamlessly combines home care and
        hospital services. This innovative solution has been licensed to 36
        vendors including collaboration with Thailand's largest telecom company.
    --  Janus, an AI-powered cybersecurity solution, is transforming medical
        device manufacturing. By integrating seamlessly into the process, it
        helps manufacturers meet rigorous global compliance standards like FDA,
        HIPAA, and NIST. Janus proactively protects devices from cyber threats,
        monitors M-IoT communications in real time, and detects suspicious
        activities. It simplifies network logs, updates firewalls dynamically,
        and streamlines compliance processes. This not only enhances product
        security but also boosts market competitiveness. As healthcare demands
        robust data protection, Janus offers a reliable and efficient solution,
        setting a new standard for smart cybersecurity in medical devices.
    --  iKNOBeads are the world's first and only magnetic microbeads with
        controllable morphology, designed to activate immune cells in the fight
        against diseases. Their uniform bead size ensures batch-to-batch
        reproducibility, while the bumpy body design maximizes cell interaction,
        enhancing activation efficiency and reducing the required bead quantity.
        This innovative approach surpasses traditional activation materials and
        offers a more effective and economical feeder-free platform for
        generating high-quality and quantity immune cells for therapy. The
        adaptability of iKNOBeads technology, through surface modification,
        allows for a wide range of immunotherapy applications, promising
        potential breakthroughs in disease treatment that could revolutionize
        the field and bring hope to millions.
