Self-driving robotic health clinics that roll right up to patients on the street could one day become a reality.
A new concept dubbed Aim hopes to harness artifi cial intelligence (AI*) to improve everyday health care, using smart devices in the home as well as a mobile app to keep track of patient data.
With a self-driving clinic, patients could have access to accessible diagnostics* even if they can’t make it to the doctor, including ther-mography*, imaging and breath analysis and, it could even provide emergency transport if necessary.
Aim, developed by Seat-tle-based fi rm Artefact, is designed to help overcome some of the challenges of health care, including the common lack of access to patient data as a result of fragmented* sources.
The system would inte-grate data from Internet of
Things* devices at home, such as smart watches or fi tness trackers and smart mirrors. It would also rely on self-reporting from the patient, which could be recorded in the mobile app.
In essence, Artefact explains, this creates a uni-fi ed, patient-owned health
record. The system also relies on an autonomous clinic, which is equipped with a built-in pressure sen-sitive scale to measure body mass index (BMI*), balance and posture.
It also has a seat to con-duct acoustic analysis of respiration* and cardiac rhythm*. There are also real-time instructions displayed all around, and it allows for telemedicine* consults.
“The concept aims to make health care far more effec-tive and effi cient, the fi rm explains, by better bridging the gap between patients and doctors. (SD-Agencies)

Panasonic has developed a clothes hanger that deodor-izes* shirts and jackets by releasing nano-sized nega-tively charged* particles into the air around the garment.
Called Deodorant Hanger MS, the gadget is said to reduce odor intensity within fi ve hours and the Japanese fi rm claims it works espe-cially well to eliminate the smells of smoke, sweat and grilled meats.
Nano is very small and invisible* to the human eye and the fi rm has used this in a range of devices such as its hairdryer.
The system requires a power source and is equipped with a unique cable that is plugged into a wall outlet, but the device also includes a pack for batteries in case users are without an electri-cal socket.
The Deodorant Hanger is available for US$180, but it is only available in Japan at the moment. (SD-Agencies)

Swimmers could be saved from drowning by a new airbag-style device that infl ates suddenly around the neck when it senses the person wearing it is in trouble.
Ploota is worn like a necklace and detects emergency* situations, much like the latest cars do in head-on collisions.
It realizes when its wearer has been sub-merged underwater for 30 seconds, and fi lls its inte-grated fl oats with a fi tted carbon dioxide cartridge, bringing the potential casu-
alty* back to the surface.The revolutionary gadget
could even be seen as a replacement for bulky armbands, which children learning to swim must wear in classes.
And it could also be worn by those at risk of passing out and slipping underwa-ter in the bath.
Founder Rainer Fakesch came up with the idea after a swimming accident during a family beach holiday.
He began working on a prototype* in 2015 in Germany, hoping to make
the world’s fi rst sensor-controlled underwater airbag to intervene in an emergency.
The Ploota is available to pre-order from its website for US$110 following a successful crowdfunding* campaign.
It is particularly aimed at children, so parents can allow themselves to relax a little while watching their loved ones swim.
Ploota is also available in adults’ sizes, and additional carbon dioxide cartridges can be bought.

Snapchat is taking users on an underwater adven-ture. Royal Caribbean has designed a modifi ed* unique scuba mask that houses Snapchat Spectacles, which can be submerged for 30 minutes.
Called “SeaSeekers,” the device uploads footage to the diver’s Snapchat Memories, allowing them to instantly share their deep-sea experi-ence with those on land.
“The SeaSeeker will enable all adventure-seekers to get a front-row seat to the thrill-ing adventures found under-water in a way that has never been possible before,” said Jim Berra, chief marketing offi cer for Royal Caribbean International.
The unit consists of a pair
of Spectacles that are housed in a waterproof casing that doubles as goggles for the diver — the Spectacles snap in and out of the custom-designed* scuba mask.
SeaSeekers are currently being tested in Mexico with a group of professional divers, but Royal Caribbean has plans to release the technology to its guests. The fi rm is also looking to patent the goggles, which it will target at maturing millennials*. The mask was also designed to encourage people to spend more time exploring the oceans.
Snapchat released its Spec-tacles in November, which are a range of sunglasses with which users can fi lm 10-second video clips and upload them straight to its app.
