ITRI Unveils Cutting-Edge Smart Medical Technology at CES 2025

The Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), that of Taiwan the largest and one of the leading high-tech applied research institutes in the world, today announced the introduction of intelligent medical innovations to CES 2025 booth 8430North Hall, LVCC and its event website. Smart medical technologies include High-privacy AI digital caregiverTHE Intelligent Medical Assistant Solution (iMAS), Janus, Bob Med And iKNOMarbles.

THE High-privacy AI digital caregiverco-developed by ITRI and Streamteck, is an advanced remote monitoring system that uses thermal imaging and millimeter wave radar technologies to detect patient vital signs and activities with hospital-level accuracy while preserving the confidentiality. The system tracks bed exits, falls and prolonged inactivity, and quickly alerts caregivers via a mobile app when abnormalities are detected. With its compact design, it is perfect for use in clinics, wards, nursing homes and nursing homes, providing a cost-effective telemedicine solution.

Features of High Privacy AI Digital Caregiver:

• Privacy thermal imaging: This eliminates the need for cameras, ensuring patient confidentiality. With a fine resolution of 3.75 cm (compared to 60 cm with a competitor), it accurately identifies images and displays an action detection error rate of <1% for activities such as prolonged lying down, going out bed and falls.
• Real-time alerts: Sent via a mobile application, real-time alerts immediately notify caregivers of any abnormal incidents such as fever, shortness of breath or a fall. This feature enables early detection of emergencies, reducing staff response time from one hour to just one minute. It significantly improves remote monitoring, emergency response rates and outcomes.
• Multisensory module: Its 60 GHz millimeter wave radar and thermal imaging sensors accurately detect body temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure and blood oxygen saturation, matching the accuracy of hospital equipment.
• AI-powered calibration: AI-based noise filtering and IoT capabilities work together to minimize interference based on distance from the heat source, ambient temperature and humidity, ensuring accurate body temperature detection and continuous analysis of movements.
• Hospital-level accuracy: The High-Privacy AI Digital Caregiver stands out as the only care product on the market offering hospital-level precision. In collaboration with Streamteck, ITRI tested 50 units at a long-term care facility at Taipei City Hospital, where they successfully met National Early Warning Score (NEWS) standards. Unlike competitors with up to 10% respiration detection accuracy margin, the high-privacy AI digital caregiver achieves accuracy <±2 bpm for respiratory rate, <5% for heart rate, < ±0.3 degrees Celsius for body temperature, <±2% for blood oxygen and maintains a 90% accuracy rate for blood pressure trends. It also has an action detection error of <1% for activities such as prolonged standing, sitting, lying down, getting out of bed, and falls.

Many healthcare facilities suffer from inadequate equipment and staffing. The High-Privacy AI Digital Caregiver allows caregivers to monitor patients remotely. This reduces the need for frequent in-person visits and check-ups, easing the workload of health workers and helping to address workforce shortages.

Visitors to the CES 2025 booth will be able to experience how this advanced system tracks their vital signs, without the need for cameras or wearable devices, with remarkable accuracy comparable to hospital equipment, while ensuring privacy and comfort. Visitors can also see the system in action as it detects critical events such as getting out of bed, falls and prolonged inactivity, providing real-time alerts via a mobile app.

THE Intelligent Medical Assistant Solution (iMAS) integrates several lightweight and portable medical devices to provide a complete telemedicine solution for patients with limited access to healthcare. Its intelligent medical imaging technology facilitates diagnostic interpretation, allowing doctors to provide remote diagnoses. Doctors can monitor patients’ conditions in real time, helping to avoid treatment delays. During remote visits, doctors can easily carry the portable iMAS to provide rapid diagnosis and care. iMAS serves as a “hospital at home” solution that seamlessly combines home care and hospital services. This innovative solution has been licensed to 36 suppliers, including in collaboration with that of Thailand largest telecommunications company.

Janusan AI-powered cybersecurity solution transforms medical device manufacturing. By seamlessly integrating into the process, it helps manufacturers meet rigorous global compliance standards such as FDA, HIPAA and NIST. Janus proactively protects devices against cyber threats, monitors M-IoT communications in real time and detects suspicious activities. It simplifies network logs, dynamically updates firewalls, and streamlines compliance processes. This not only improves product safety, but also boosts market competitiveness. As healthcare demands robust data protection, Janus offers a reliable and efficient solution, setting a new standard for intelligent cybersecurity in medical devices.

Bob Med is an intelligent medical assistant system that uses multi-modal generative AI and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) technology to quickly 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 to text, reducing administrative work time for medical staff by 75%. The system integrates voice input, pathology images and patient records to provide personalized AI-based medical recommendations. Additionally, MedBobi has a professional dementia database, allowing users to better understand the disease through text-based Q&As and get personalized care plans.

iKNOMarblesthe world’s first and only magnetic microbeads with controllable morphology are designed to activate immune cells in the fight against disease. Their uniform bead size ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility, while the bumped body design maximizes cell interaction, improving activation efficiency and reducing the amount of beads required. This innovative approach outperforms traditional activation materials and provides a more efficient and cost-effective power-free platform for generating high-quality and quantity immune cells for therapy. The adaptability of iKNOBeads technology, through surface modification, enables a wide range of applications in immunotherapy, promising potential breakthroughs in disease treatment that could revolutionize the field and bring hope to millions of people. people.
