ECG debuted Addison, the Virtual Caregiver™, at the 2022 HIMSS Global Health Conference. Addison is the next generation of RPM technology, offering a solution to the global caregiver crisis and the ongoing COVID-19 challenges by providing healthcare management outside the doctor's four walls. 

Addison is a state-of-the-art, 3D-animated caregiver. The Virtual Caregiver™ engages with and helps monitor the health of aging and chronically ill clients and child patients via touch-screen devices placed throughout a home. 

Addison helps monitor patients' health by providing voice-driven medication reminders, 24/7 emergency response, and telehealth services. Addison can also lead patients through the steps of recording vitals, such as blood pressure, oxygen saturation levels, and temperature, with the ability to share that information with designated providers and caregivers in real time. 

Users can customize the Virtual Caregiver™ to fit users' preferences. Clients can choose from eight avatars of different ethnicities and genders to interact with, and Addison's environment can automatically mirror client lighting and weather. Pre-orders are currently underway.
