Route deviation
When does a route change warrant attention, and when is it ordinary variation?
Research & pilots
Build the evidence with us.
WISAM’s next research step is to move from simulated inputs to structured real-world use. A controlled study could test wearable adherence, alert quality, caregiver response, and where the software helps or falls short. The pilot would follow device integration and an agreed protocol.

01 / Research questions
Questions worth testing
These are research directions for a future study, not validated WISAM outcomes.
Wearable adherence
Can the device be worn and charged reliably in everyday life?
Caregiver response
What context helps people interpret and act on an alert?
Multimodal risk
Do combined signals add useful context beyond any single pathway?
False alerts
What alert burden is acceptable, and how should uncertainty be shown?
Human factors
How does WISAM fit the routines of families, clinicians, and responders?
Health economics
Which costs and resource effects should a later study measure?
02 / A proposed pilot
What a proposed pilot could look like
A pilot would follow technical integration and an agreed protocol. It has not yet been conducted.
- 01
Define cohort
Eligibility, consent, safeguards, and success measures.
- 02
Deploy
Configure the integrated device and support workflow.
- 03
Observe
Track use, signal quality, alert behavior, and practical friction.
- 04
Evaluate
Apply the agreed methods to technical and human outcomes.
- 05
Report
Publish or share findings with limitations clearly stated.
Future proposal, not a committed or completed pilot.
03 / Shared work
What each side would provide
What WISAM can contribute
- The existing software prototype and its caregiver/responder demonstration flows
- Documentation of component logic and current technical evidence
- Technical participation in integration and evaluation planning
What a research or healthcare partner can contribute
- Study design, population access, and appropriate governance
- Clinical or field expertise and participant safeguards
- Independent measurement, analysis, and reporting
04 / Funding pathways
Research funding pathways
A study may be supported through a sponsored pilot, co-funded research agreement, institutional collaboration, or a grant application led by an eligible partner. Any route depends on the partner, protocol, and funding criteria; no grant or eligibility is assumed.
