MindHeart Lab, Born Out Of Tragedy & Love

  

  • EduPal Robot, The robot with a heart that teaches, was inspired by the Founder's son Ed that is diagnosed with ADHD and Schizophrenia!
  • MindHeart Lab Co-founders have been involved with autism and brain science their entire lives and careers. 
  • EduPal Robot & Software Development Platform with Virtual Mirror Technology utilizes Emotional Intelligence, AI & AR integrated into the facial muscles and bones of a child. We are using naturalistic facial expression synthesis, based on real children, to eventually be used to help train caregivers to better interact with children with brain disorders. We are pioneering the concept of naturalistic, child-based facial expression synthesis for simulated children behavior. 

Communications, Emotion Context Education And Data!

  


  • The best way to simulate biological behavior is through biological models and the brain processes which give rise to behavior and social learning.
  • We can use these to animate lifelike models of the face with real-life emotion context that can interact like a human child to machine learn emotion behavioral insights.   
  • Parent Permission-Based Data Emotion Context Data Gathering, Collaboration & Child Report Distribution Platform. Besides the cognitive apps and games EduPal teaches, there is key indicators of brain health and social development along with the methods we are developing that may be useful for therapists and researchers working with individuals with autism, schizophrenia and brain injuries.
