AgelessMind: A Senior Health and Wellness App
The elderly population is continuously expanding, with many facing isolation and a pressing need for intensive care. Our app is designed to offer vital mental health support to elderly patients by identifying the potential onset of depression and other health concerns. A meta-analysis by Zenebe et al. reveals that over 31% of elderly individuals suffer from depression. Our app goes further by monitoring and reporting potential issues to family members and caregivers, thereby enhancing their capacity to provide effective support. Additionally, our app serves as a bridge to social inclusion, aiding the elderly in feeling more connected to society. This is achieved by offering electronic device training and simplifying communication, making it easier for them to engage with the world around them.
MindfulGrowth: A Children's Mental Health App
The prevalence of social network trends and turbulent social dynamics among children is increasingly concerning for parents, especially in relation to their mental health. According to UNICEF, approximately 4.5 million individuals aged 10 to 19 in Europe suffer from anxiety or depression. Our app is specifically designed to assist in monitoring and identifying potential signs of depression onset, ensuring that children receive the care and support their parents wish for them.
MedTranslate: Decoding Medical Test Probabilities
Physicians and patients alike often find the statistics and potential outcomes of medical testing challenging to grasp. Research by Gigerenzer and Edwards highlights the shortcomings in doctors’ understanding of probabilities and medical statistics. However, they also state that there is always at least one alternative that is easy to understand. Our app addresses this widespread issue by translating testing probabilities into language that is easy to understand. This innovative tool bridges the gap between the results and both doctors and patients, reducing misunderstandings and enhancing satisfaction.
CalorieTune: Adaptable Caloric Expenditure Estimator
52.7% of the EU adult population faces overweight issues, highlighting the shortcomings of existing diet solutions, which often fail due to their unsustainable, monotonous, or poorly controlled nature. Meanwhile, in the US, 136 million people are attempting to lose weight. CalorieTune estimates the basal metabolic rate and daily caloric expenditure by monitoring behavior and adjusting its model based on discrepancies between expected and actual results. This enhances the precision of dietary recommendations. Offering a higher level of customization than typical diet apps, CalorieTune employs advanced tracking and adaptive estimates tailored to individual behavior. This will ensures the superior accuracy and efficiency of the model.
