Revolutionizing Disease Detection with AI-powered Gait Analysis

In the realm of healthcare, early detection of diseases is crucial for successful treatment and improved patient outcomes. However, traditional methods of disease assessment often rely on subjective evaluations, leading to missed diagnoses and delayed treatments. To address these challenges, a leading healthcare organization partnered with us to develop an innovative solution that leverages Artificial Intelligence (AI) to revolutionize disease detection with AI-powered gait analysis.

Challenges Faced

Subjective Evaluations: Traditional disease assessment methods relied heavily on subjective evaluations, which led to inconsistencies and missed diagnoses. Moreover, approximately 25% of early diagnoses were being missed due to the limitations of existing assessment methods. This burdened healthcare systems, increasing both patient and operational costs.

The Innovative Solution

We collaborated with the healthcare organization to create a software solution powered by AI and advanced gait analysis techniques. This solution focuses on analyzing a person’s walking pattern, known as gait analysis, to detect subtle abnormalities that could indicate underlying conditions. By automating this process with AI, our solution provides an objective, reliable, and efficient method for disease assessment.
