Baüne Ecosystem Inc.

Published purpose

The Project aims to integrate NRC’s VitalSeer technology, a contactless, camera-based system that uses computer vision and AI to monitor vital signs into Baüne’s Autonomous Care Unit (ACU™). The ACU™ system delivers real-time, personalized care through a modular and scalable digital health ecosystem that integrates Point-of-Care (PoC) technologies and Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices. It supports autonomous, contactless health assessments and predictive analytics, enabling early detection of health deterioration and enhancing primary care delivery across urban, rural, and remote setting. Designed to improve accessibility and inclusivity, the upgraded system supports preventative care in community and home-based settings. It features real-time, contactless vital sign monitoring, predictive analytics, and streamlined data collection to enable early intervention, particularly addressing fall risks among seniors aged 65+, which cost Canada $5.6 billion in 2018. Deployment at Baüne’s ACU™ system has already supported proactive home-based health management in community settings (CLSC Pierrefonds and CIUSSS-ODIM partner sites), and the addition of the NRC’s VitalSeer technology will improve senior’s safety at home by using validated, with optional minimally invasive modes for enhanced precision or continuous data collection.
