Problem
Seniors face a significant risk of falls, which can lead to serious injuries and a loss of independence. Traditional walkers offer limited support and do not provide real-time feedback on a user's gait or stability, hindering early detection of mobility issues. Many seniors also find traditional walkers to be cumbersome and unattractive, impacting their willingness to use them.
Solution
Camino has developed a powered Smart Walker that utilizes AI vision to analyze 22 gait metrics and provide users with real-time feedback on their mobility and stability. The Smart Walker offers auto-boost for uphill assistance and auto-brake for controlled downhill movement, enhancing user confidence and reducing the risk of falls. The device also features automatic lighting for low-light conditions and a sit-assist mode for support when sitting and standing. A companion app provides additional features to help users track their progress and maintain their mobility.
Target Audience
The primary target audience is seniors who are at risk of falls or who want to maintain their mobility and independence, as well as their caregivers.
