Mental Health - LifeSaver

"If I had known" The devastating words no parent ever wants to say, echoing with the pain of missed signs, silent struggles, and a chance to save their child that came too late.

When a child is experiencing mental health challenges such as anxiety, bullying, depression, or addiction, the symptoms often manifest in subtle yet physiologically significant ways, such as pupil dilation, increased heart rate, psychogenic tremors, and rapid eye movements. These early warning signs are frequently overlooked, yet they can provide critical insight into a person’s emotional or psychological state. By developing a system that passively monitors these physiological indicators, it may be possible to detect early signs of distress and automatically alert a parent, caregiver, or mental health professional when intervention is needed. 

Meet LifeSaver! It is more than just a tool. It has the potential to be a transformative lifeline in proactive mental health support, especially for adolescent children who often struggle in silence.

Software code is free and the hardware is a prototype. Software code can be used with or without hardware as hardware only enhances the accuracy of the device. 

This device is currently in active development. The next version will feature an AI assistant called “Let’s Talk”. It is  designed to offer passive, always-available online support, ready to listen and engage at any moment. It will also include built-in alerts for caregivers, emergency services like 911, and more, aiming to provide a constant layer of safety, connection, and care.
