Overview
Orikio is an acoustic monitoring device for nursing homes that delivers continuous, privacy-preserving detection of critical events using on‑device acoustic AI. The system analyzes ambient sound in real time without continuous recording and issues targeted alerts to caregivers for faster, informed responses.

Key benefits / Why Orikio?

• Automatic detection of risk events (falls, calls for help, respiratory distress, vomiting, agitation) to speed up intervention.
• Operational efficiency: reduces unnecessary rounds and enables staff to focus on priority care tasks.
• Personalized monitoring: the system adapts to residents' routines to reduce false positives and improve relevance.
• Privacy-first design: sound‑only analysis with no camera and no continuous audio storage.
• Immediate notifications: descriptive alerts sent to caregivers' smartphones for remote triage and action.

How it works
Orikio is a plug-and-play box installed in each room that continuously analyzes relevant sounds and notifies the care team when an event is detected.

• Quick installation: connect the device to power and local Wi‑Fi—no wiring or complex setup required.
• On-device acoustic AI: real-time sound analysis runs locally to identify critical audio signatures while preserving privacy.
• Alert flow: when an event is detected, caregivers receive descriptive alerts and can listen to a few seconds of audio tied to the alert for assessment.
• Human support: deployment assistance, training and operational support are provided to ensure proper use and interpretation.

Detection scope (examples)

• Falls
• Calls for help / vocal distress
• Respiratory distress / abnormal breathing sounds
• Vomiting
• Agitation or agitation‑related sounds

Privacy & data handling
Audio is analyzed in real time and not recorded continuously. Only short snippets linked to detected alerts may be temporarily captured to enable remote evaluation; these snippets are not stored long‑term. The device can enter standby when a third person is present and no cameras are used, minimizing intrusion.

Deployment & hardware
The solution consists of a small, plug-and-play box per room that connects to Wi‑Fi and transmits alerts and anonymized monitoring data to caregiver apps and reporting tools.

Use cases

• Immediate alerting for acute events (falls, severe distress)
• Ongoing behavioral monitoring and early detection of health deterioration
• Reducing staff workload and improving allocation of care time
• Improving family reassurance through enhanced resident safety

Frequently asked points

• Are sounds recorded? — No continuous recording. Only brief audio segments associated with detected alerts may be captured temporarily for evaluation.
• Does the solution protect residents' privacy? — Yes. Processing is sound-only, the device can auto‑standby when others are present, and long‑term audio storage is avoided.
• How does the system adapt to each resident? — A dedicated device per room allows the AI to learn individual routines and personalize detection settings.
