Transforming Care with AltumView's Sentinare
Sentinare by AltumView enhances safety and privacy in care homes with smart AI monitoring. As the exclusive UK & Ireland distributor, Porters Care delivers real-time alerts and insights for better care.

What is Sentinare?

Sentinare is an advanced AI-powered activity sensor designed specifically for senior care and patient monitoring. Its name combines “Sentinel” and “Care,” reflecting its role as a vigilant guardian in care giving environments. Utilising artificial intelligence, Sentinare detects and analyses human activities, collects health statistics, and alerts caregivers to emergencies such as falls, bed exits, wandering, overstays, and absences. To protect privacy, Sentinare employs an AI chip to convert people into stick figures before transmission, allowing placement in sensitive areas like bedrooms and bathrooms. ​

Privacy Protection

Sentinare prioritises privacy by using advanced technology that transmits simplified stick-figure representations instead of traditional video footage. This innovative approach ensures that while important motion and activity can still be monitored for safety and well-being, the identities and personal environments of residents remain completely anonymous. By abstracting visual data into non-identifiable figures, Sentinare maintains a high level of discretion, offering peace of mind to users and their families without compromising on functionality or care.

Integration in Residential and Care Homes

Timely Intervations

By providing timely interventions, Sentinare enhances resident safety, reduces the risk of incidents, and improves overall care quality. Family members and caregivers gain peace of mind, knowing that residents are being monitored with dignity and respect, while also benefiting from an intelligent system that supports proactive care.

Privacy-Preserving

Implementing Sentinare within residential and care homes is straightforward and minimally invasive, making it easy to integrate into existing care environments. The sensor’s privacy-preserving design allows for discreet placement in various settings, including private rooms and communal areas, without disrupting residents’ daily lives.
