During university, we conceptualized Medolor, a healthcare bracelet that monitors the wearer's medical status to detect anomalies and other discrepancies. It integrates with medical services to improve healthcare from checkups to emergency responses. I was responsible for the concept, the service integration and the stakeholder mapping.

Personal health is a rapidly growing sector heavily benefiting from advancing technology, better use of bigger data and an increasingly user-friendly design. A cornucopia of data points measured at any time tell us anything about ourselves leading to an ever faster increasing knowledge about our bodies.
However, step count and sleep cycle analysis are still the pinnacle of added value for most users.

This concept was a trial at designing something more meaningful for users, not the market. As such, it addresses personal health at the relationship between patient and provider.

The device syncs medical history in the cloud and aggregates a secure medical profile of the user. Using gamification or other features can help incentivise a healthier lifestyle. The data can also be shared with authorized healthcare professional to speed up processes. Additionally, the bracelet can send beacons to rescue services in case of emergencies.

The bracelet doesn't have to be intrusive or penetrative in order to gather data about the wearer's health status. Using features such as luminescence blood analysis, pheromone detection or skin emission analysis, it detects diseases or related issues before they pose a problem.
