This year, Kami Home expanded its product suite to include Smart Detect and Pro Security, the world’s first AI-powered camera alarm system for the entire home, which includes professional monitoring. Kami Vision also continued to grow its offerings in healthcare through the company’s flagship product, KamiCare, a fall detection solution for senior living facilities and for seniors who wish to age with dignity in their own home. The AI optimizes caregiving with automation by analyzing 30 points on the body and automatically identifying falls as they happen. A team of experts is available 24/7 to analyze and verify the fall, and then alert caregivers to take immediate action.
To demonstrate the power of these solutions and the impact they’re having on customers’ lives, Kami Vision:
- Manages 248 million daily alerts and 25 petabytes of data
- Confirms 99.9% accuracy for fall detection and reduces fall risk by 60%
- Responds within 60 seconds
