SS11 – PharmaShield

Medication mistakes can cause catastrophic consequences. Pharmacists are crucial in ensuring medication safety by reviewing prescriptions, assessing potential interactions, and providing patients counseling. However, there is a chance that they make blunders. According to an article posted on HK01 in 2021, a pain patient with aspirin sensitivity was prescribed the same anti-inflammatory analgesic, causing discomfort and sensitivity. The Hospital Authority noted that healthcare workers did not associate the two drugs. Our AI program relied on an autoencoder model, which is an artificial neural network that is designed on how the human brain processes information. Also, it includes data mining techniques to analyze prescription records, electronic health records, and other healthcare data sources. By using this model, it could simplify pharmacy workflow, minimize administrative burden, and frees pharmacists to focus on patient care. To make the AI programme to indicate all kinds of drug-drug interactions, it is needed to label data from thousands of drugs and millions of different combinations of possible interactions. In summary, the optimization models consider factors like lead time, inventory costs and service levels to determine the optimal stocking levels for different drugs. Consequently, it can predict drug demand, optimize inventory management, and maintain adequate stock levels.

SS02 – AIm for Memory

Patients with Alzheimer’s disease and elderly individuals gradually lose and forget their past happy memories, leading to feelings of loneliness and isolation. That’s why our team aims to design an interactive device called “AIm for Memory” that utilizes Artificial Intelligence to help them retrieve their past memories more naturally, fostering connections with their family and friends. “AIm for Memory” is a portable interactive system equipped with a camera, AI system for object and hand posture detection, and a mini projector mounted on a mechanical arm. The device displays relevant information on the desk. Patients or elderly individuals place personal belongings, such as an old watch, under the camera, The AI system detects the object and recalls the associated video/photo of his/her son (the watch was a gift from him). The projection occurs directly onto the desk, eliminating the need for the patients or elderly to interact with a tablet or smartphone. This approach ensures a more natural human-machine interface as it removes the requirement for pressing buttons or speaking words, which can be challenging for them. By utilizing AI to establish a connection between objects and memories, we aim to leverage technology to overcome technological barriers and facilitate meaningful human connections.

SS07 – Potential+

Many secondary schools currently lack a comprehensive and holistic approach to life planning education. Students often view life planning as solely focused on career choices, with disorganized activities like job shadowing and self-reflection, while the dominant academic culture renders other learning activities as unimportant. This can result in a lack of student motivation and an incomplete understanding of their true strengths, needs, and potential. The “Potential+” app aims to address these issues by providing a more integrated platform for life planning education. The app facilitates the collection and analysis of comprehensive student records, capturing both academic and non-academic, quantitative and qualitative data. Using AI-powered assessments, the app helps students better evaluate their skills, interests, and personality, and matches them to the most suitable learning activities and experiences. Furthermore, the app leverages generative AI to assist teachers and students in preparing personalized documents, such as reference letters and personal statements, more efficiently and accurately. By taking a more holistic approach to life planning, “Potential+” seeks to cultivate a growth mindset and encourage diverse learning pathways, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling school experience for students.

SS10 – Brainwave Meditation & Attention Training System

Emotional stress is a common problem we often experience, such as students who face pressure from academics, family, peers, society, emotions, and personal issues. If they all have emotional stress, would it be unbearable? We cannot know for certain. However, what is certain is that ignoring personal mental health in the long term can have serious consequences. In recent years, there has been a rising number of student suicide cases. In less than three months since the start of this academic year, there have been 37 cases of student suicides or suicide attempts in Hong Kong. The main reason is that students face a lot of pressure in their academics, which can lead to emotional issues and even mental health problems. Therefore, we have designed and developed this system, the Brainwave Mindfulness and Focus Training System, to help students alleviate their emotional stress. We hope to achieve the following goals through this system: Using a wearable headband that detects brainwave signals, coupled with a dedicated mobile application, the system automatically plays corresponding mindfulness videos based on the detected values to assist students in engaging in mindfulness activities, thereby achieving the function of calming their minds and relieving stress.
