Vytal, a company aimed at making eye-tracking technology easily accessible for identifying neurological changes

Vytal leverages the ubiquitous laptop or smartphone camera to perform rapid eye tracking and biometric calculation from the comfort of your home

The teens were driven by a desire to help the elderly, a demographic often overlooked in the tech world’s focus on young users."With conditions like Alzheimer's, early detection can really help manage disease progression," said Kalahasty, whose family includes several doctors."We want to empower people with that knowledge." The duo's seemingly preternatural drive belies their age.

This pragmatic pivot exemplifies Kalahasty and Mattapalli’s nuanced understanding of product-market fit, remarkable for students their age. It also led them to prioritize launching quickly over perfecting their algorithms. “We realized we were going about it the wrong way,” said Mattapalli, describing an epiphany after a year of heads-down technical development.

As they finalize their product, the duo is opening beta signups online and pursuing academic and industry feedback. Their unique cross-generational approach could provide inspiration in an aging society.
