THIRUVANANTHAPURAM:
Buoyed by the phenomenal success of its innovative food kiosk product Vend’N’Go, Versicles Technologies has now forayed into the digital health sphere with a pioneering multilingual kiosk that provides basic health diagnostics with utmost accuracy within a minute and at extremely low prices.
Known as Prognosis, the digital health kiosk is armed with a touch screen that offers lucid video instructions ensuring users receive accurate readings. It is equipped with machines that can measure a user’s blood pressure, heart conditions (ECG reader), and weight. Designed with the user’s comfort in mind, the kiosk, which provides multilingual instructions through an AI-based voice bot, also features a resting bench where one can comfortably sit during tests.
Designed with a futuristic vision, the innovative kiosk offers swift results in under a minute, but doesn’t just stop at diagnostics. If irregularities are detected in an individual’s vitals, immediate recommendations and advice on subsequent steps are provided. Furthermore, its integration with telehealth means users can consult specialist doctors and obtain prescriptions without a physical appointment.
Manoj Dethan, CEO, Versicles Technologies, said Vend’N’Go, recognized as one of the first-of-its-kind in Kerala, has expanded its footprint from conventional places to bustling technology parks and modern offices, which is a testament to its adaptability and relevance in today’s fast-paced world.
“Drawing parallels from our food kiosk expansion, our new health kiosk is another avant-garde startup venture that hospitals across the state can harness,” he pointed out. “The health kiosk also serves as an information hub, offering users insights into various medical services, catering to the company’s broader mission of promoting health awareness.”
Versicles Technologies (versicles.com) founder Kiran Karunakaran said the success of Vend’N’Go gave the company the confidence and understanding of how to seamlessly integrate digital experiences into everyday solutions.
“With our Prognosis health kiosk (myprognosis.ai/kiosk), we aim to revolutionize the way individuals access basic health checks, bridging the gap between early detection and professional healthcare. The digital devices feed data into our cloud- based medical inference AI engine. From a single lead ECG, we can identify hidden conditions like heart arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) and connect to expert medical care at the right time. Our ultimate goal is to improve patient outcomes by making advanced health diagnostics as accessible and cheap as getting a snack from a kiosk.”
Karunakaran said the introduction of the health kiosk stands as a testament to Versicles Technologies’ commitment to pushing the boundaries of digital solutions from the food kiosk domain to healthcare, setting new benchmarks in the digital kiosk industry.
Following a triumphant launch last year, the food kiosk Vend’N’Go has made its mark at Lulu Mall in Thiruvananthapuram and RCity Mall in Mumbai. The company is all set to unveil this kiosk at Phase 1 location of Technopark on November 13.
Aneesh Suhail, Director (Technology), Versicles, said a major USP of the food kiosk is its convenience factor. “With Vend’N’Go on-site, employees no longer need to head to the building gates for their meals. They can now enjoy a swift, convenient meal during breaks or amidst their tight schedules.”
