Asilla Inc. (Headquarters: Machida, Tokyo; CEO: Tsuyoshi Onoue; hereinafter 'Asilla'), which upholds the vision of 'Creating a safe and comfortable world through the power of technology,' is pleased to announce the official release of 'asilla care,' an AI monitoring system for nursing and welfare facilities, on April 1, 2026.

Background of Development While the demand for nursing care services is expanding due to the aging population, a chronic shortage of caregivers is a major industry challenge. Many facilities struggle to maintain safety and reduce staff workload during night shifts with limited personnel.

Under these circumstances, there is growing interest in building safety management systems using technology. However, many facilities have been unable to adopt such systems due to concerns over the cost of new equipment and operational burdens.

Asilla has previously supported safety management in commercial facilities and office buildings through its 'AI Security asilla' system. By applying this expertise and its proprietary behavioral recognition AI technology to the nursing and welfare sector, the company developed 'asilla care,' a monitoring solution specialized for risks unique to these sites, such as falls, wandering, and sudden changes in physical condition.

'asilla care' allows for the use of existing security cameras, eliminating the need for new equipment and reducing installation costs and operational burdens. By using AI monitoring to cover blind spots and night-time periods, the system aims to realize a 24/7 safe monitoring environment.

What is 'asilla care'? 'asilla care' is a system that uses AI to analyze real-time footage from existing security cameras in a facility to quickly detect anomalies such as resident falls, wandering, or instability. From the occurrence of an incident to detection, it takes approximately one second, and the information is immediately notified to staff smartphones or intercoms, allowing for quick responses even from staff at a distance or those busy with other tasks. No new sensors or large-scale construction are required.

Main Functions <Basic Detection> 1. Fall Detection: Instantly detects falls and notifies staff. 2. Wandering Detection (Line Crossing): Detects crossing of designated lines in areas or entrances. 3. Instability Detection: Identifies unstable walking early. 4. Loitering Detection: Detects long-term stays in specific areas. 5. Violence Detection: AI analyzes dangerous behavior within the facility. 6. Anomaly Detection: Detects movement patterns that differ from the norm.

<External Notification Functions> - Real-time notification to smartphones and app-based intercoms (Buddycom) - Email notification - Alarm light notification

Benefits of Adoption 1. Safe monitoring even with a small staff: AI detects falls and wandering even when staff are busy or during night shifts. 2. Reduced risk of accidents and oversight: AI complements human monitoring in blind spots and at night. 3. No additional equipment costs: Utilizes existing cameras and can potentially be subsidized by local governments.

TAIS Registration 'asilla care' is registered with the Technical Aids Information System (TAIS) operated by the Techno-Aid Association, facilitating the use of subsidies for nursing facilities.
