Lifecast Body Simulation Global Releases World’s First Child With Down Syndrome Training Manikin
Lifecast Body Simulation Global, a leader in hyper-realistic training manikins, announced today the release of the world's first Child with Down Syndrome training manikin. This realistic manikin was formed from a real-life 3D body scan of a seven (7) year old girl with Down syndrome named Gwen and will be available to healthcare education facilities around the world to facilitate specialty and inclusive training in managing Down syndrome.
Down syndrome (also called Trisomy 21) is a genetic disorder caused when abnormal cell division results in extra genetic material from chromosome 21. While varied amongst patients, a few common physical traits of Down syndrome are low muscle tone, a difficult airway for intubation, smaller stature, gapping in the toes, almond-shaped eyes, a single deep crease across the center of the palm, smaller hands and feet - all of which are accurately represented in the child with Down syndrome training manikin.
Gwen was created by Lifecast Body Simulation and the University of Greenwich in London who also received support from the Down Syndrome Association. Gwen and her family are truly supporting such a worthy cause in creating awareness of Down syndrome and giving healthcare providers an accurate means of training while continuing to support diversity and inclusion in simulation-based education and training.
"Gwen is the world's first truly inclusive manikin. Our goal is to make manikins that look like real people. We worked with the University of Greenwich in the UK to create this manikin lifecast and 3D scan of Gwen, a 7 year-old girl with Down Syndrome who lives in the UK with her dad, mum and brother," says David Halliwell, Founding Director of Lifecast Body Simulation Ltd.
The Gwen child with Down syndrome training manikin will make her official presence into the marketplace at the Association for Simulated Practice in Healthcare (ASPiH) on November 6 in Birmingham, UK and will be launching in the United States at the International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH) Jan. 21, 2023 in Orlando, Florida.

Blyncsy’s Machine Vision Technology Announced as Winner of Recovery and Sustainability Challenge for New York Tri-State Area
NEW YORK - November 8, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Last week, the Transit Tech Lab announced that Blyncsy is one of six winners of the Recovery and Sustainability Challenge, a global competition that called for technologies to improve public transit safety and meet clean energy objectives over a one-year pilot. Blyncsy along with five other companies that won the challenge recently completed proof of concepts and will scale their solutions with the MTA, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ), and NJ TRANSIT.
Blyncsy will leverage the power of artificial intelligence and crowdsourced visual imagery to provide automated maintenance detections through their Payver technology. Payver will be automatically detecting sign asset data from overall condition to luminosity, the overall condition of lane markings, as well as assessing the quality of cracking and potholes to assess pavement. The objective of this pilot is to utilize the Payver platform and crowd-sourced imagery to remove the need for over 70% of physical surveying of predefined infrastructure assets, including lane markings, pavement conditions, and signs. Through this innovative technology, Blyncsy hopes to increase ridership safety and reduce emissions by reducing the need for manual inspections.
The Challenge launched during the Summer of 2022 and solicited nearly 150 applicants from across the world. Pilot winners were evaluated and selected by a team of 38 transit and public safety experts based on the technologies' impact, product, team, and value of solution.
"We are so honored and excited to be one of the winners of this challenge. PANYNJ is crucial to the region and we can't wait to continue our work with them. We understand that automation is vital in making our transportation systems smarter and safer and we believe this is a huge step forward," said Mark Pittman, founder and CEO of Blyncsy.
Through this innovative technology, Blyncsy hopes to increase ridership safety and reduce emissions by reducing the need for manual inspections.
