Register – Intelligent Mobile Systems for an Aging World, Justin Chan (September 23, 2025 @4pm ET)
Zoom Registration: https://umass-amherst.zoom.us/meeting/register/Hw27HSCgThCh41eN466wiQ Abstract: By 2050, older adults will make up about 22% of the global population, driving an urgent need for accessible and reliable health technologies. In this talk, I will present our work on intelligent mobile systems designed for older adults. The first enables low-cost health screening using everyday earphones and wireless earbuds. The second is an ambient sensing system that uses smart devices to detect emergent, life-threatening events such as cardiac arrest. The third leverages compact AI-enabled radios for cardiovascular monitoring, including blood pressure. Through these examples, I will show how computational and sensing techniques that generalize across hardware and operate in real-world environments can address pressing societal challenges.
