About Eduard

Founder, builder, and product strategist

I am the founder of Eldercare Robotics and the creator of Luka Bear, an AI-enabled assistive-technology platform developed from my experience caring for my father with Alzheimer's disease.

Professional profile

Human problem, practical system, real use

My work combines product strategy, conversational AI, software development, hardware integration, caregiver applications, secure web portals, privacy and compliance documentation, reimbursement readiness, implementation, and commercialization.

I did not begin Luka Bear as an abstract technology project. I built it because my family needed it. That experience continues to shape how I approach every product: begin with the human problem, understand the daily workflow, build something practical, and improve it through real use.

At Eldercare Robotics, I have led Luka Bear from concept through design, development, testing, documentation, deployment, and market introduction.

Eduard Takhunts's father and family member with Luka Bear

The reason behind the work

Caregiving changed the direction of my technology work.

Caring for a person with Alzheimer's changes the entire family. Repetitive questions, nighttime confusion, anxiety, isolation, and disrupted sleep affect both the person receiving care and the caregiver.

Luka Bear was created to provide familiar, patient support during those moments while helping caregivers remain connected and reducing the burden of being continuously present.

Technology should support the person receiving care and the caregiver beside them.

Before founding Eldercare Robotics, I led entrepreneurial and business-development activities across service businesses, digital marketing, client operations, and web-based products. Earlier international experience strengthened my ability to manage projects, negotiate across organizations, and build practical solutions with limited resources.
