CES Innovation Award Honoree total pet healthcare app ‘TTcare’ to be introduced in Las Vegas

Leave a comment

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 9, 2021 — AI FOR PET will participate in ‘CES(Consumer Electronics Show)’, the world’s largest technology exhibition held in Las Vegas from Jan. 5 (THU) to Jan. 8 (SAT) 2022.

AI FOR PET has developed an AI technology-based total pet healthcare app service, TTcare. Users only need their mobile phone and the TTcare app to take care of their pets’ health. When a user takes a picture of their pet’s eyes or any part of their body with a smartphone, the artificial intelligence will inform them whether or not there are any potential eye or skin disease-related symptoms. In addition to diagnostic features, there is weight management, behavior analysis, and other features.  These features allow users to manage their pet based on breed, age and disease history.

TTcare will be introduced at CES
TTcare will be introduced at CES

AI FOR PET began developing TTcare based on a research study "CNN-based diagnosis models for canine ulcerative keratitis" published in the 2019 Scientific Report journal. By learning major body parts such as the eyes, ears, feet and other parts of pets, the algorithm automatically detects and optimizes the areas to analyze. It crops them and determines whether they may have a potential disease using various neural network algorithm-based ensemble models.

TTcare is the first smartphone application in the world to determine whether a disease exists by using pictures of pets’ eyes or skin. TTcare is also the first product to be officially approved by the Korean government for "Artificial Intelligence-based medical device software for animals" rather than a general pet service. By being selected as a CES 2022 Innovation Award Honoree, TTcare’s technology and innovation has received validation.

TTcare was selected as a CES 2022 Innovation Award Honoree

TTcare prevents disease deterioration and health complications in pets, thus reducing medical expenses due to unnecessary hospital visits. It will also recognize and manage neglected diseases in advance as most pet owners do not have an expertise in pet diseases.

The CES Euna Huh said, "Our app supports the identification of diseases and periodic health care from the comfort of the user’s home, so that pets and pet owners can live a healthy life together for a long time."

AI FOR PET launched TTcare in late 2020 in Korea and plans to launch an English service in the first half of 2022 to service pet parents around the world.

53 million additional cases of depression raises concern about gaps in healthcare delivery

According to a study on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental disorders by Dr. Damian F. Santomauro and his colleagues at the University of Queensland, Australia, (published in online Lancet journal), the number of patients with major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders increased by more than 53 million and 76 million, respectively, with higher rates among women and young people. According to the Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) MAP published by the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF), the availability of mental health services across the U.S. varies from region to region, with most regions meeting less than 50% of the demand for mental health services, which is inadequate.

Addressing regional disparities by enhancing treatment effectiveness with VR-facilitated treatment

Using VR technology in the treatment of depression can be a significant adjunct to enhance treatment effectiveness by allowing the patient to have a more realistic experience. Patients are able to immerse themselves almost "in vivo" in a VR environment and experience "first- hand" typical situations that are relevant to depressed patients. They identify with the characters in the scenes being able to take multiple subjective positions in the situations that are displayed. Watching the characters in the scenes express their thoughts and perspectives from a distanced position, can help patients reflect on their own thoughts and perspectives in similar situations in their lives. Enhancing the effectiveness of available treatments for depression can help alleviate the burden associated with the increasing demand for adequate mental health services worldwide.

＜Comments from the professional consultants＞

Dr. Kim Larsson and Dr. Amaro Laria joined the Jolly Good VRDTx project as professional consultants in 2021. They are the co-founders and co-directors of Boston Behavioral Medicine, LLC in Boston, MA, USA. Dr. Larsson is a graduate of Boston College School of Nursing, and a former supervisor at Cambridge Health Alliance, Harvard Medical School. Dr. Laria is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts Boston and a current Clinical Instructor in the Psychiatry Department of Cambridge Health Alliance, Harvard Medical School. They have expertise in behavioral medicine and currently run a training program.

"VRDTx can help improve quality and effectiveness in treating depression, which in turn can alleviate some of the burden associated with regional disparities in the US."
Katharine "Kim" Larsson, PhD, RN, CS
Co-founder & Clinical Director
Boston Behavioral Medicine, LLC

"The COVID-19 pandemic has limited social interactions causing many to become isolated, which has significantly fueled levels of depression and anxiety. In turn, being depressed and anxious causes people to become more isolated, which impacts negatively on their functioning. VR technology can be an important adjunct for psychotherapists in the treatment of depression. "

"I foresee that VR technology will become more routine in the treatment of mental health conditions, and will represent an important clinical tool for psychotherapists to enhance the effectiveness of their treatments. Given the increasing demand for services and serious shortage of mental health clinicians, enhancing the effectiveness of our current treatments for depression will be essential in addressing this global mental health crisis."

"VRDTx can allow depressed patients to immerse themselves in real life situations, which can significantly enhance the effectiveness of their treatments"

"VR technology brings an experiential and interactive element into the therapy room. It’s an important complement to the ‘talking’ element in psychotherapy, and it results in a more balanced and comprehensive treatment. For example, if a patient is talking about their lack of motivation, the therapist can invite them to reflect on a scene they watched in a VR session, which provides a more vivid and concrete illustration of what the lack of motivation may look like in real life.

Moreover, watching a realistic scene in a VR environment may trigger a particular memory of a similar situation in their own lives, which will allow them to process this material in their talking therapy. VRDTx can also facilitate the process of learning strategies like self-monitoring and cognitive restructuring, which are core to cognitive-behavioral therapy, by providing a role play opportunity through a realistic illustration in VR. It can also be a good replacement for in-vivo exposure, especially in situations in which it’s difficult to recreate real life exposure situations.

DearMonsters’ sustainable blockchain play-to-earn concept proves to be popular as 500000 BUSD public presale allocation sold

Leave a comment

SINGAPORE, Nov. 30, 2021 — DearMonsters ($DMS) successfully completed their round of presale on 24th November 2021. Touted to be the next upcoming blockchain play-to-earn game, its concept of sustainability of the game ecosystem to provide potential earnings to both early and late entrants to its game appeals to many crypto-enthusiasts as DearMonsters successfully completed its first presale of 500000 BUSD.

Slated to be released in December 2021, DearMonsters’ development of a sustenance-centric play-to-earn infrastructure proves to be a hit amongst investors and players alike as many crypto investors see the potential of DearMonsters to be the next gem in the NFT industry.

Beyond the gameplay, DearMonsters also seeks to introduce real life use cases to the token to increase the DMS token utility.

The sustainable model

The adoption of blockchain technology has popularised NFT blockchain play-to-earn-games. There are many such games offering lucrative financial yields through in game activities such as grinding, farming and PvP. However, games that attract players through high investment yields are often unsustainable due to the high distribution of tokens without strong use cases and burning mechanisms to control the supply which eventually leads to a severe plunge in token prices. The developers of DearMonsters has identified this to be the lifeline of a blockchain play-to-earn game concept and thus developed a sustainable economic model with strong utility to maintain a healthy economy that addresses token supply inflation. This is achieved through its gameplay mechanisms and the reflection feature of the DearMonsters token.

DearMonsters ($DMS) Reflection Token

DearMonsters utilises a reflection token as its trading token and in game currency. Reflection token works by charging a tax to each transaction and distributing the fee to all token holders according to the percentage of tokens held. Fees are automatically distributed to token holders upon each transaction. $DMS tokens charges a 3% tax, of which 1.5% is redistributed to token holders, 1% is burned while 0.5% goes towards continual development, rewards issuance and developers’ fee. The burn feature ensures continual burn of tokens which reduces the pressure of token inflation, creating scarcity. The redistribution function incentivises token holders to hold the tokens to receive more tokens thus reducing selling pressure in a bear market. In summary, while the reflection token’s 3% tax appears to impose on investors, it rewards the long-term investors as the main percentages of the tax are being redistributed and burned.

Safe, Secure and Trusted Platform
DearMonsters is fully committed to ensuring that the platform is safe and secure for all investors. An external audit of the DMS token smart contract has been completed with SolidProof, a leading blockchain Audit firm. DearMonsters has also engaged leading cybersecurity firms to ensure maximum protection of investors’ assets and the DearMonsters ecosystem.

DearMonsters’ platform offers a variety of investment opportunities to suit different investors’ investment needs and horizons, from holding tokens to entering the gameplay to earn token rewards. DearMonsters can be one to be added into your crypto portfolio.
