SameDay Security to Launch Virtual Caregiver at CES

Addison Care, a virtual caregiver, will debut at CES, said parent company SameDay Security. The 3D animated virtual caregiver appears on 15-inch monitors located in aging and chronically ill clients’ homes and monitors their activity, reminds them to take medications and provides real-time assessments if a client is at increased risk of falling or health decline, said the company. Roughly 100 million Americans live with a chronic illness, and treatment regimens are often difficult to manage at home, said SameDay Security CEO Anthony Dohrmann. Three percent of the U.S. population can afford round-the-clock caregiving, he said, saying Addison Care is an affordable alternative that works with healthcare providers and hospitals. Addison will be at booth #42142 in the Sands next week.
