AI-Powered Smart Pregnancy Belly Wrap for Continuous Maternal & Fetal Monitoring
NOVALITH® is a next-generation smart pregnancy monitoring solution designed to bridge the critical gaps in maternal healthcare through a non-invasive, wearable belly wrap. Developed with a strong focus on comfort, clinical accuracy, and technological scalability, NOVALITH enables continuous, real-time tracking of vital maternal and fetal health metrics such as heart rate, temperature, and fetal movement, using a series of discreet, medical-grade sensors embedded within a soft, breathable smart textile.
The wrap connects via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to a mobile application, which displays live biometric data through a user-friendly interface. Using machine learning algorithms, the app analyzes incoming data to detect early signs of high-risk complications like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, or fetal distress. In the event of an anomaly, instant alerts are sent to both the mother and her healthcare provider via a secure cloud-based platform.
The solution is especially impactful in regions with limited access to regular checkups, where early detection can save lives. NOVALITH also includes a clinician dashboard, allowing remote access to patient data, trend analysis, and documentation to support clinical decisions.
Designed with minimalism and elegance in mind, NOVALITH features a subtle battery indicator and a sleek, soft-pink finish to ensure comfort and dignity during wear. Backed by a subscription-based revenue model, it ensures affordability while supporting long-term innovation.
NOVALITH doesn’t just monitor pregnancies, it transforms them into safer, smarter experiences by empowering mothers and modernizing prenatal care through scalable, data-driven intelligence.

TrueMortem
TrueMortem is an AI-driven cause-of-death prediction and analysis system focused on identifying whether a person’s death was due to heart-related conditions. The project was developed in response to the growing need for data-driven support tools in forensic pathology, particularly in Sri Lanka, where standardized digital postmortem analysis is lacking. TrueMortem utilizes two distinct models trained on different data sources: a structured postmortem dataset manually curated from Kurunegala General Hospital, and a verbal autopsy dataset obtained from the PHMRC Gold Standard VA database.
The postmortem model processes medical findings such as internal organ damage, external injuries, and demographics using machine learning algorithms. After experimenting with various models, Random Forest was selected for its superior performance, interpretability, and ability to handle missing data. The verbal autopsy model, designed to work with questionnaire-based data, uses an ensemble of Random Forest, SVM and LightGBM for improved accuracy.
The system features a React-based frontend, a FastAPI backend, and a RASA-powered chatbot integrated with an LLM to answer user queries. An interactive dashboard presents prediction results, confidence scores, and feature importance using SHAP values for transparency.
TrueMortem ensures data security, complies with ethical standards, and addresses legal requirements for sensitive medical data. While currently focused on heart-related deaths, the system is modular and scalable, paving the way for future expansion to other causes of death. It stands as Sri Lanka’s first AI-powered mortality analysis tool, supporting forensic experts and public health officials in making informed, evidence-based decisions.

B-Track: Preventing Post-Expiry Blood Wastage in Sri Lanka using Demand-Based Forecasting and Proactive Inventory Management
Post-expiry blood wastage presents a substantial global healthcare challenge. Blood is an essential and irreplaceable healthcare resource, used for surgeries, emergency care, and chronic illness management. Despite technological breakthroughs, blood cannot be artificially generated and must be donated by volunteer donors, whose availability is intrinsically unpredictable. This variable donor availability, along with the limited shelf life of blood, makes it an essential resource that must be carefully managed – amidst the fluctuating blood demand. However, inefficiencies in demand forecasting, inventory optimization, and communication continue to contribute to substantial discards of this life-saving resource.
To address these inefficiencies, the project B-Track introduces a data-driven solution using historical data (2020–2024) from Sri Lanka’s National Blood Transfusion Service, supplemented by expert interviews. The proposed solution is a multivariate Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) model integrated into a platform that supports proactive inventory management. By analyzing complex trends, B-Track provides more accurate demand forecasting, while enabling timely decision-making through automated near-expiry alerts and optimized redistribution mechanisms. This integrated system aligns blood collection with anticipated demand, minimizing expiry-related wastage.
Key findings demonstrate that the developed multivariate LSTM forecasting model achieved a demand prediction accuracy of 63.79%, outperforming both SARIMA (42.17%) and Univariate LSTM (50.21%) models. System testing further validated the effectiveness of real-time inventory tracking, alerts, and redistribution protocols. This research contributes a scalable model for enhancing blood bank sustainability by merging machine learning-driven forecasting with dynamic inventory optimization, paving the way for a more efficient and equitable blood supply chain.
AnoLNN – A Generalisable Approach for Explainable Video Anomaly Detection with Liquid Time-Constant Networks
AnoLNN is a novel, generalisable, and explainable framework for Video Anomaly Detection, designed to address key challenges in the field such as limited generalisability, high computational costs, data imbalance, and lack of interpretability. The system integrates a hybrid architecture that combines Convolutional Neural Networks for spatial feature extraction with Liquid Time-Constant Networks for capturing dynamic temporal dependencies. The model learns from overlapping video sequences and employs a class-balanced focal loss function to handle the natural class imbalance common in VAD datasets. Anomalies are detected by evaluating the confidence of sequence-level predictions, using F1 score-based threshold optimisation. To enhance transparency and trust, the system integrates Grad-CAM and Integrated Gradients, enabling the identification of critical spatial and temporal features contributing to anomaly predictions. Evaluated on the UCF-Crime dataset, AnoLNN achieved strong performance with an AU-ROC of 0.9787 and PR-AUC of 0.9568 for Road Accidents, as well as an average AU-ROC of 0.9090 across multiple anomaly types. These results highlight its state-of-the-art performance and adaptability across diverse scenarios. The explainability features built into the system support its safe deployment in real-world applications such as surveillance and autonomous vehicles.
