According to a study, “Around 235 million kids suffer from chronic diseases today in the world. Whereas, 55 percent of patients drop or don’t follow the treatment properly.”

So, to improve this situation, “Iubi is developed, based on important Ph.D. researches and studies involving patients treatment, patient-centric, health routines, human behaviors, and biological factors unified creating a powerful and unique source of science.”

Iubi works differently for kids, parents, and doctors. For kids, it is their best mate and helps them learn and enable to stick to their healthy routine. It put itself as a challenge to them. Whereas, for parents, it is their sentinel to inform them of their child’s routine. It keeps children at ease to follow the routine in a fun and recreational way.

Ultimately is the best tool to get more precise information about patients. It will help doctors revolutionize the way to treat chronic diseases.

It understands every activity of a child and generates small challenges every day to learn more about children’s habits. It may relate to their food, medicine, social interaction, exercise or other activities. Children from age 3 to 11 years are its ideal trainers.

Every time when kids open the App or interact with Iubi IoT experience new things with the additional evolved robot. Iubi understands three languages like English, Portuguese and Spanish. Creators have been focussing their efforts on 6 to 13 years old children.
