  1. Please introduce your company in one sentence.
    BioAssist develops innovative commercial services and products in the fields of IoT, mHealth, and assistive care.
  2. Kindly provide a one-paragraph description of your project.
    Our posture directly affects our health. Improper execution of fitness or rehabilitation exercises can lead to musculoskeletal complaints and health problems. For this reason, observation and guidance by an expert, such as a trainer or a physical therapist, is required. However, it is a time-consuming and expensive process. AI4Pose proposes an innovative AI solution that can perform postural assessment in real-time, using just a smartphone and at a fraction of the cost. The system will also utilize additional sensors, such as smartwatches, and provide recommendations to act as a complete coaching solution.

    StairwAI will provide us with valuable support and resources, to further develop the existing prototype into a market-ready product. With the support of the mentors and AI experts, this innovative solution will be further enhanced on the AI aspects creating a solid technological foundation, ensuring its robustness, as well as reliability and flexibility. We will also be able to implement a modern, user-friendly interface that ensures acceptance by end-users.
  4. Could you outline the upcoming roadmap or plan for the next few months?
    In the course of the next few months, we will define in detail the use case scenarios that will be supported by the finalized solution and set out a plan for the technical implementation. We will continue expanding our video dataset for training the AI models and implementing the front end of the solution. The solution prototype will be evaluated by end-users. At the same time, we will define the business model and our plan to bring the solution to the market.

We are looking forward to seeing the great improvements that your solution will implement!
