SEOUL,
South Korea, Nov. 23,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- JCF Technology is a startup that
independently developed 'MecKare', a radar sensor that measures
biological signals in a non-contact manner, and provides a platform
service that automatically connects users and guardians in two-way
emergency situations through an artificial intelligence analysis
system. Since its establishment in 2016, it has developed a highly
accurate non-contact multi-biological radar sensor through many
years of technology accumulation, and succeeded in commercializing
the product for the first time in 2021.
MecKare uses microwave radar and micro-Doppler signal processing
technology to measure the user's heart rate, respiratory rate, and
skin temperature within 16.4 ft in real time. The sensor can
measure human body movement patterns using precise and highly
responsive thermal infrared rays and can detect falls through
pattern analysis based on changes in human movement. In particular,
the movement and change of thermal infrared rays within the
measurement range are detected in real time, and the trend of
biomarkers that appear as advance signs before a person falls can
be checked through differential motion detection that measures the
user's movement pattern. It provides an alarm in advance by
predicting before a person falls, enabling accuracy and quick
response to accidents. As a result, it is possible to prevent
safety accidents in the elderly by detecting emergency situations
such as lonely death, cardiac arrest, breathing difficulties, and
falls. Additionally, unlike other existing wearable devices such as
smart watches or bands, MecKare does not need to be worn or
attached to the body, so it can be used remotely via Wi-Fi without
causing stress to the user.

MecKare can be installed in the bedroom, bathroom, living room,
or entrance of a home or facilities(Assisted Living, Nursing Home,
etc) to provide 24-hour monitoring without a camera and detect
abnormal signs in advance using a biometric information analysis
algorithm and deliver them to the guardian.
MecKare's radar biometric sensor is recognized in the global
market for its technology as a device that obtains precisely
customized biometric information while overcoming spatial
constraints and without risk of privacy infringement. MecKare is
being supplied to senior care facilities in Australia, Germany, Poland, Saudi
Arabia, and China. In 2025,
MecKare plans to conduct verification of vital signs such as
attendance, fall prevention, and asthma of elderly people living in
hospitals or assisted living in conjunction with local PPOs/HMOs in
the United States.
In summary, MecKare is a system that reduces user inconvenience
and enables management of multiple patients. By being able to
provide personalized health data analysis results, it will serve as
an opportunity to change the market paradigm towards preventive
smart care. We expect MecKare's A.I to play a role as an innovator
that complements, rather than replaces, humans in care
settings.
