Supporting older people to remain living independently and safely at home, through the implementation of AI-based audio monitoring that detects risk events like falls.

The project included in-home testing of Neo Care’s environmental safety system – with 6 falls detected.

Participants in the trials were very positive, reporting that the device was strongly preferred over alternatives (i.e. pendants) and liked the use of the virtual assistant for reducing false positive alerts to loved ones.

Based on information gathered through the trial process, Neo Care is now seeking industry partners and investment to accelerate their progress to market.

Using augmented reality technologies to develop virtual spaces, helping older people remain engaged in their communities.

Lateral Vision ran a successful 6-week pilot project which included hosting a 360° virtual tour of Rottnest Island. The project received overwhelmingly positive feedback from participants from across Australia who used the virtual conferencing platform.

Information gathered throughout the pilot project will drive further development of curated virtual social experiences for older adults.

Results from the project have been published in the Geriatric Nursing Journal and presented at the Australian Association of Gerontology Conference.
