Inspiration

Dementia and other illness of the mind have a hardest time getting quality care from family, professional care givers and doctors. It is often tough to ask them simple questions like "how often do you wake at night" or "how many times do you to go the toilet"

Even though the person is an adult, interviews of the patient by medical professionals can not give accurate data. The doctor patient interview could be like a doctor interviewing an infant in some cases and the data can be vital to medical care such as drug levels, patient activity and more.

In addition the sensors in question can have secondary and tertiary functions such as hazard lighting for stairs when it is dark, motion lights, patient awake alarms, patient out of bounds and more. In addition to these factors we can prevent stupid injuries if we only have our home help us in an active manner.

What it does

Simple sensors gather data and transmit to a central location; where the sensor type is stored securely so no data is transmitted giving away medical data just a simple measurement and device ID.

How I built it

Challenges I ran into

Working with cry babies who can't follow direction, who call themselves strat·e·gists and cofounders mostly of failed jobs and failed projects and less than a few years out of school. Complete Noobs with no real world earned.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Telling the little children (acting like 14 year olds to go get bent).

What I learned

Get a team agreement up front on who is the team lead and the decider. After all during an impasse someone has to be the boss. Have them sign a "I am not a snow flake agreement" and get their information for the privately held do not hire DB.

What's next for LifeMesh

I am currently working in an industrial space to test transmission drop off between different types of walls.
