CARE RESPITE is an intelligent monitoring device that helps caring patients and dependent people, at home (e-health) and in institutions. It is based in patented computer vision and artificial intelligence technology that can register and interpret preprogramed risk events that may occur to the dependent person even in the dark. The device will send alerts to caregivers whenever a situation occurs previously identified as risky by the caregiver
