- The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded Vigorous Mind, Inc. a $450,000 Project Grant under the Aging Research (CFDA 93.866) federal grant program. The funding supports the development of an autonomous navigating robot equipped with infrared cameras, image processing software, and AI to detect falls and fall risks in nursing home residents with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias. The robot patrols nursing home corridors and rooms to alert staff of incidents, helping address the high...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, awarded a $506,399 Project Grant under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) to Healthy Design LTD. CO. to develop a novel continuous predictive wearable agitation monitor and alert system using actigraphy and AI for hospitalized older adults. The goal is to prevent delirium and dementia by closely monitoring agitation levels and enabling timely implementation of non-harmful...
- This Project Grant award of $499,943 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), supports the development of a novel, unobtrusive device by Aster Labs, Inc. to continuously measure and analyze gait patterns in older Black adults as an early indicator of health decline from Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The device aims to provide medical professionals and caregivers with remote access to these insights to help...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Cooperative Agreement awarded under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) program provides $1,230,163 to support the development of an AI-based video assessment app for remote, accessible fall risk assessment and personalized exercise programs for older adults. The project, led by Foresightcares Inc. in Matthews, North Carolina, aims to empower older adults to maintain independence and improve their quality of life by addressing the...
- This Project Grant award of $326,382 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), is for the development and testing of "SEEINME" - a consumer-generated, HIPAA-compliant digital personal health profile for persons with dementia (PWD). The goal is to foster person-centered coordinated care and reduce caregiver burden by enabling assisted living/memory care communities to partner with and empower family members, informal...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $333,125 Project Grant under the Aging Research (CFDA 93.866) federal grant program to George Washington University. The grant, which runs from September 17, 2024 to August 31, 2025, will fund the development and validation of artificial intelligence algorithms to predict body composition and physical function in older adults using low-cost 3D optical body scanning technology. The research aims to provide accessible and scalable methods to assess...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $613,823 Project Grant under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866) to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, doing business as the Clinical Practices of the University of Pennsylvania. The purpose of this 5-year grant, beginning September 1, 2025, is to assess the effectiveness of the SENSE4SAFETY technology-supported intervention in reducing fall risk for community-dwelling older adults with mild cognitive impairment. The SENSE4SAFETY intervention uses in-home passive sensors to identify escalating fall risk in real-time, applies machine learning to inform personalized alerts, and connects at-risk older adults with coaches to implement evidence-based plans to reduce their fall risk. The goal is to understand the implementation factors that can improve the scalability of the SENSE4SAFETY approach in diverse community settings.
