In a significant development in the field of healthcare technology, Yassin Mohamed Jamal, a student from Qena, Egypt, has created an innovative AI-powered application called 'Zew'. This app aims to revolutionize preventive healthcare and mental support using artificial intelligence. Yassin, a student at the Shaheed Abdel Menaim Riyad Secondary School for Boys in Qena, has made a notable impact in the scientific and technological communities with his groundbreaking invention.
The concept of 'Zew' originated from Yassin's desire to provide immediate assistance during emergencies. Initially, the app focused on offering first aid and instant guidance for handling critical situations. However, Yassin soon realized the importance of preventing health crises rather than just treating them. This led him to develop a more comprehensive version of 'Zew', integrating AI tools that transform a mobile phone into a personal health and mental monitor.
The 'Zew' application begins with users creating a detailed health profile, including personal data such as height, weight, blood type, medical history, chronic diseases, and regular medications. This information, combined with emergency contact numbers, enables the AI algorithms to provide personalized services. One of the key features is the daily check-in, where the app poses four tailored questions based on the user's health status and medical history.
These daily questions help assess the user's health and predict potential symptoms that may develop into serious conditions. Based on the results, users receive daily health and mental guidance customized to their specific needs. This proactive approach fosters a culture of prevention and early intervention. Additionally, 'Zew' offers a safe space for users to express their feelings and daily stress, allowing the AI to diagnose and provide practical support for achieving mental balance.
Yassin's innovative app has garnered significant recognition, winning several prestigious awards. 'Zew' secured the first position on a national level and internationally, including the Afro-Asian and global centers. The app also achieved prominent rankings in notable competitions such as the Saqia Al-Sawi contest, which supports sustainable development goals.
Yassin's achievements do not stop at 'Zew'. He has also designed an educational game for children that focuses on raising awareness about sustainable development goals and solving environmental and social issues in an engaging and innovative way. This game earned the top spot in the Upper Egypt region and was awarded the 'Best Idea' prize nationwide.
Yassin emphasizes that 'Zew' is an innovation that is not limited by age but driven by vision and the ability to solve real societal problems. His project serves as a model for young people who can harness AI to serve humanity, transforming traditional medical concepts into preventive digital practices that safeguard human health and safety.
