Breathing
Apnoea
No chest movement on camera, or a respiratory rate of zero.
- Camera
- Monitor
Watch every bed
SIMA catches the critical moments at the bedside, writes the record for a person to confirm, and shows the unit where its time goes.
00 / SIMA V1
V1 at aglance
For hospital simulation teams. Run a scenario on any bed and get the record, the CPR numbers and the debrief the moment it ends.
No one scribing. No video to re-watch.

01 / What SIMA detects
Six moments.One station.
Each one raised on the central station, the bedside and the wall monitor.
Resuscitation
Cardiac arrest
Compressions on camera, or a heart rate of zero. The event opens itself, with the CPR numbers.
- Camera
- ECG
Early warning
Deterioration
An early warning score crosses its line, or a vital sign leaves the bed's limits.
- Monitor
Movement
Out of bed
The patient leaves the bed and stays out.
- Camera
Movement
Possible fall
A sharp drop of the body towards the floor.
- Camera
Voice
What the team says
Spoken actions become proposals. A person confirms each one.
- Microphone
- Confirmed by a person
02 / How a scenario runs
Admit > Alarm > Debrief
On any bed: in the sim centre, or in situ on a ward.
-
01
Admit
Admit a patient from the central station. The bed and the age group set the limits.
-
02
Run
The monitor and the room device stream numbers. No one scribes.
-
03
Respond
SIMA raises the alarm and opens the event. A person confirms what was said.
-
04
Debrief
The timeline, the intervals and CPR quality, the moment it ends.
V1 · in development
03 / The room device
One cable.No video out.
A Raspberry Pi 5 with an AI accelerator, a near-infrared camera and microphones, on one Ethernet cable. Perception runs on the device: only numbers leave it. Never video.
04 / What SIMA is not
No video.No verdicts.
SIMA measures and records; judgement stays with the team. Simulation only, not a medical device.
No diagnosis or advice
It reports what it measured and for how long. No recommendations, doses or targets.
No video stored
Frames are read on the room device and discarded.
No ranking of staff
Insights are for the unit and the team, never one person.
A person in the loop
Nothing enters the record until a team member confirms it. That is a risk control, not proof of safety.
05 / Frequent questions
Questions?Start here
Who is V1 for?
Hospital simulation teams: resuscitation officers, simulation faculty, neonatal and emergency educators, and in-situ simulation programmes.
Can SIMA be used with real patients?
No. It is for simulation only and is not a medical device. Real patients would need regulatory approval and clinical safety sign-off first.
Which monitors and manikins does it work with?
Monitors that send HL7 v2 (IHE PCD-01), through the SIMA Gateway, and any manikin: the room device watches the scene.
How is detection tested?
A scenario lab plays clips with a known timeline through SIMA's camera pipeline and scores what it caught, how fast, and its false alarms per hour.
