Topic: A4 Ambient Intelligence and Ultra-Low Power Systems for Healthcare and Wellness
Medical, healthcare, and life science applications require increasingly smarter and smaller devices enabling to easily interact among each other, with the environment and with the users in a smooth and smart way. Personal and personalized medicine and rehabilitation is leading to a significant increase in both complex lab solutions as well as a myriad of consumer-like disposable devices. This topic covers the use of ambient intelligence, wireless body sensor networks and wearable technologies for healthcare, rehabilitation and wellness. This includes but it is not limited to: technologies for ultra-low/zero power systems for personal vital signs monitoring (such as heart rate, fitness devices); mobile system for motor rehabilitation and assessment; (bio)feedback system for rehabilitation and fitness based on wearable and mobile technologies; innovative implantable miniaturized sensors and actuators, personal health devices; power management, on-board performance optimization and networking technologies for body area networks and ambient intelligence in wellness, healthcare and fitness.
