The Team
Where we come from
Engineered by teams at GWU and University of Waterloo. Radar, ML, clinical research, product design.
The world's first mirror-mounted respiratory intelligence system — built for Parkinson's Disease. No wearables. No disruption. Just silent, continuous protection against the complication that kills 1 in 3 PD patients.
Parkinson's is a progressive brain condition. As it advances, the muscles that control swallowing and breathing begin to fail — silently, overnight, between doctor visits. The result: aspiration pneumonia. The #1 cause of death in late-stage PD.

In Parkinson's Disease, the throat muscles weaken quietly. Swallowing fails. Food enters the lungs. Pneumonia follows. It takes 10–14 weeks to develop. No alarm. No device. No one watching.
In Parkinson's Disease, throat muscles gradually lose coordination. Swallowing becomes unreliable — small amounts of food and liquid sometimes slip into the lungs instead of the stomach. Over 10–14 weeks, this silent process causes aspiration pneumonia.
Pneumonia is the leading cause of death in Parkinson's patients. Yet today, in 30,000+ senior living and memory care facilities across North America, there is zero passive, continuous monitoring of respiratory health. Doctors only see the problem when it becomes a crisis.

No interaction from the resident. No wearable. No training required. Just a mirror that works every single day.
Presence is detected automatically. Nothing to press, nothing to wear. From the resident's perspective, it is still just a bathroom mirror.
A radar measures chest movements. A microphone listens for voice softening — an early sign of throat muscle weakening in Parkinson's. Both are processed inside the device. Nothing is sent to the cloud. Nothing is recorded.
Over the first 7 days, AEYRON builds a unique respiratory and voice profile for each resident. From day 8 onward, every reading is compared against that personal baseline.
When AI detects a consistent downward trend in respiratory or vocal strength — the 10–14 week warning window — an encrypted push alert reaches the facility dashboard and care team app.
Fewer transfers mean lower costs and preserved bed occupancy. Early intervention keeps residents in place.
Passive monitoring frees nurses from manual checks. Alerts only when action is needed.
Families trust facilities that proactively protect their loved ones. AEYRON builds confidence.
