Ojos Project is proud to announce the release of Iris v0.1.0, the first iteration of our all-in-one caregiver tool!

💡 Background​

Iris is a program developed by the Ojos Project at UC Irvine to help caregivers/families better manage caregiving tasks. If you've ever been a caregiver for a loved one, you know how overwhelming it can be to keep track of your loved one's care. Iris is meant to help you keep track of all care-related tasks in an efficient and easy-to-understand way.

As we approach our first public release, we came to realize something critical — we don't have a logo! This is where you come in. 👀

In November 2024, Ojos Project submitted a proposal to the UCI Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program, also known as UROP. We applied for the Research Experience Fellowship, the same one we had applied for last year. Ojos Project is proud to announce that, for a second year in a row, we've won another UROP Research Experience Fellowship grant!

The Engineering team has developed the Palliaview system into the next stage. We have 3D printed the new shell and mount for the system, making it customizablev and adaptable for any surface and purpose.

Another quarter in, another quarter out. Let’s talk about what we’ve been doing in the Ojos Project!

Our research team is excited to announce our ongoing outreach efforts to engage with individuals within the hospice sector and beyond. Through both personalized engagement and campus-wide initiatives, we aim to connect with diverse perspectives to gather informed opinions about Iris.

We believe that your insights and experiences are crucial to our mission. Whether you're a healthcare professional, a student, or someone with an interest in healthcare innovation, we want to hear from you!

Iris has been in development for the entire summer. It's been a slow but steady pace, seeing as how Iris comes with new experiences for the developers. With any new experience, however, there are challenges.
