The Dusk Health and Memory Companion helps to alleviate some of the anxieties experienced by the [elderly and their concerned families](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/callcare). This system consists of a [wristband](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hume-band) and a separate projector that can be used as a medical gauge and a comprehensive display respectively.

This innovative idea was explored by Subinay Malhotra as a way to give loved ones some peace of mind when their old relatives might be living alone. The aged wearer can examine his or her own [heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yuwell-medical) and calories burned on the Dusk Health and Memory Companion, and look at how his statistics measure up on a magnified screen. This information can be instantly shared with interested parties, and video conversations can even be initiated between them for social check-ins as well.
