WELLINGTON: Sameer Dhar and Jeremy Dabor are wheeling around a skilled nursing home in wet pants.
But the two friends aren’t elderly residents of the home – they’re technology entrepreneurs, ages 22 and 23, who are there to test their invention.
Along with chief technology officer Tim Ahong, 24, they’ve moved into a skilled nursing home for six months.
Together the three have created the Smart Patch, a reusable device that sits on the outside of regular adult diapers or briefs, tracks moisture on the inside and relays information to caregivers so they know when to change residents.
