Problem
Stroke is a leading cause of disability and death, yet timely treatment is critical for recovery. Many stroke patients arrive at the hospital too late to receive optimal care, often due to delayed recognition of symptoms.

The system analyzes arm movement patterns around the clock, and if the analysis indicates a suspicion of stroke, the application alerts pre-selected contacts. This early notification system aims to ensure timely intervention and access to treatment for patients who might otherwise experience delays in receiving care.
