In the Subject of Health Care

MyGuardian Smart Care System

In the subject of modernizing health care, the MyGuardian Smart Care System offers an “invisible” assistant for better care. Equipping a centralized management of beds with real time status update, health care providers will be alerted of the events with patients as they come. 

From critical events to preventable human mistakes, it can accurately provide alerts through multiple levels of analysis. Its application can definitely assist care giving establishments, hospitals, and the like, even moreso locations with limited resources.

E-Ink Solution

In modernizing solutions, displays will also be integrated with new innovations. Avalue’s E-ink solution is definitely one that fits a smart city. It’s extremely thin and light high-contrast display that can last up to three weeks on a single charge. As an E-Note, it makes for a convenient tool for writing, highlighting, and erasing as well. As a bedside card, it gives a detailed info on a patient, status update, and mobility.

The Road Ahead

Ionex E-Scooters and Batteries

Aside from trains and buses, we've seen scooters as one of the primary means of transport in Taipei. With that said, scooters that run on conventional gasoline would largely contribute to the overall pollution in the country. 

KYMCO's E-scooters would take that load off the environment through the help of renewable energy, all while looking cool while you travel.

We've barely scratched the surface - the Taipei Smart City Summit & Expo 2019 showcased a whole lot of ingenious innovations present and new that can change the landscape of today. The future is definitely looking bright.
