The project addresses a highly valid real-world problem in healthcare (reducing radiation measurement time from 60 days to 60 seconds). However, the submission is severely penalized for absurd, exaggerated claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and audience reach ('everyone') for a highly specialized medical B2B device. This lack of verifiable traction and poor response quality places the project in the minimal traction category.

Description

Clinitraq is a Smart Radiation Dosimeter that reduces the time for measuring cumulative radiation from 60 days to 60 secs. The problem we are addressing: Radiation exposure detection at healthcare facilities uses antiquated Thermoluminescent badge technology which takes 60 days to turnaround results. It measures radiation for preset time windows as opposed to rolling time windows thereby creating a loophole in the measurement protocol and endangering workers to health risks while exposing healthcare facilities for potentially massive liability. Our comprehensive solution to this problem consists of: 1) A smart connected active dosimeter device worn by a healthcare professional 2) An edge gateway device and mobile app (either one can act as a data gateway) to a cloud platform 3) A cloud platform for collection of data for analytics/dashboards/machine learning 4) An optional blockchain infrastructure for compliance/governance needs for multi-party ecosystems.
