Sensori is honored to having Education Minister Chan Chun Sing, NUS President, Prof Tan Eng Chye, NUS Board of Trustees, Mr Forrest Li (Chairman of SEA Limited) and many distinguished guests visiting Sensori at the NUS Health Informatics Lab on 21 Jan 2025. We are delighted to having Minister Chan trialing Sensori X-Robo, a contactless and continuous vital signs monitoring technology of five critical health indicators, including Blood Pressure, Heart Rate (Pulse), Respiration Rate, Temperature, Blood Oxygen Saturation (SpO2). Minister Chan has presented the team with a "Ministerial Challenge": To improve the accuracy of Sensori contactless and continuous monitoring of vital signs health device beyond the current 95% accuracy levels. Team Sensori accepts this "Ministerial Challenge" to push the boundaries of our technology to exceed the current accuracy levels. The team has begun outlining a strategic plan to address the key aspects, including A.I. advanced algorithms, sensor optimization, and rigorous testing under diverse clinical conditions. We will leverage on cutting-edge research and collaboration with experts to ensure Sensori patented technologies meet and surpass the required standards. We are grateful to be supported by NUS Enterprise. Sensori latest innovation, codenamed X-Tab, will be launched in Q2 2025. It has a small footprint, the size of "Apple iPad"; yet it is equipped with the robust features of the X-Robo. This unobtrusive device is simple to install right out of the box and can be deployed anywhere. It is one that will be built on a clinician-led platform which prioritizes medical value based on efficacy and safety. NUS Enterprise Prof Hock Hai Teo Prof Yongxin Guo Prof Benjamin C.K.

This afternoon, we are honoured to have Education Minister Chan Chun Sing, NUS President Tan Eng Chye, and NUS Board of Trustees trialing Sensori X-Robo , a contactless, continuous and simultaneous vital signs monitoring device.  Minister Chan asked very relevant questions as to how each of the vitals are derived, in this field of predictive medicine, and how the various technologies and A. I. are applied. He went deep into the "how's" details of the technology. He is particularly keen on the contactless monitoring of the blood pressure monitoring.  Forrest Li Xiaodong , Chairman and CEO Sea Limited (including Shopee) is seated next to him. We are thrilled by the display of Minister Chan enthusiasm and his curious questions regarding the technology. Our team is grateful for the many recommendations that he had made, especially to the various use cases for Sensori devices beyond hospitals and clinics.
