Hyderabad: Anvaya’s smartwatch provides instant alerts for elderly with dementia

17

Hyderabad: Anvaya Care, a tech company based in Hyderabad, has come up with a smartwatch, specifically designed for dementia patients. This device can track the elderly’s location and send instant alerts to their caregivers if anything happens.

Anvaya celebrated its eighth anniversary and Founders’ Day at Family World in Begumpet where their device was discussed in details by the attendees. The event featured many prominent guests such as former Andhra Pradesh DGP Santosh Mehra, Tech Mahindra Global HR head Vinay Agarwal, T-Hub CEO Mahankali Srinivas Rao, India-Infers MD Ranga Pothula, independent strategic advisor Shakti Sagar, Anvaya Care founder Prashanth Reddy, and director Deepika Reddy.

According to several speakers at the event, dementia is a common problem among the elderly but the necessary systems to address it have been lacking. They praised Anvaya’s development and patenting of a smartwatch specifically designed for dementia patients, calling it a brilliant idea.

T-Hub CEO Mahankali Srinivas Rao remarked that startup ideas are becoming increasingly diverse, and the introduction of an AI-based app for elderly care and comprehensive efforts to address their issues is highly commendable. He expressed hope that Anvaya Care’s services would reach more people.

“Dementia is a prevalent issue among the elderly. However, no one has stepped up significantly to address it. The elderly face many challenges beyond just health issues. Anvaya provides excellent services. They have created a smartwatch and obtained a patent, which is great,” Srinivas Rao said.

“In European countries, cyclists often meet with accidents, and before they even reach the hospital, all their vital signs and other details are sent to the doctor. Similarly, this watch can be used for accident victims. The necessary details can be ready for doctors as soon as they put the watch on the patient in the ambulance, enabling immediate treatment. Congratulations to Prashanth for coming up with such a good idea,” he added.

On this occasion, Anvaya’s founder Prashanth Reddy said, “We established our company with the aim of providing services to the elderly. In a short time, we expanded to 40 cities, including Bangalore and Chennai. We have received recognition and awards from IIT Madras, the Telangana State government, and HICIA, among others. We saved many people during the Covid-19 pandemic, by setting up home quarantine facilities. We also developed the Anvaya Smart Emergency Response System and obtained a patent for it. We identified that there were no services in the dementia care sector and aimed to provide them. We launched India’s first AI-enabled dementia care at home. For employee care, we introduced the Ananya Nishchint AI platform and the Ananya Kin Care remote patient monitoring system, which is sufficient for the next 20 years. The elderly raised us and made us productive members of society. It is our duty to provide them with the necessary care. Therefore, Anvaya provides a wide range of services, from sending nurses and doctors to their homes, collecting lab samples, sending plumbers, booking Uber cabs, and more,” he explained.
