The gesture-based tech is developed to help patients communicate their needs effectively with care givers.
Hyderabad, 11th July 2024: Leading institution Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham is about to start producing Netravaad, a cutting-edge tool that will transform medical care for those with speech difficulties. T2HInnovations, a healthtech startup supported by SCTIMST TIMED (TBI for Medical Devices and Biomaterials), is developing this ground-breaking technology.
The gadget, called Netravaad, is created and put through rigorous testing at Kochi’s Amrita Hospital. With Netravaad, patients may effectively convey their wants thanks to cutting-edge eye gesture-based technology.
Biomedical and healthcare robotics is the area of expertise of T2HInnovations, a Kerala-based firm founded within Amrita University’s HuT Labs AI and Robotics research center. It works closely with the research facilities of Amrita University, utilizing the latter’s technical and technological know-how to create significant solutions like Netravaad.
“We’re now in the production phase of Netravaad and all set to bring this transformative technology to a wider audience,” stated Dr. Rajesh Kannan Megalingam, Director, HuT Labs, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, and Founder, T2H Innovations. For those with speech problems, Netravaad’s capability to facilitate communication using eye motions is a significant advancement. This accomplishment demonstrates our commitment to creating workable solutions that satisfy the communication demands of the millions of people afflicted by neurological illnesses.
