📋 Tender Overview
Towards an ecosystem of user-centric devices and services for multisport training and remote healthcare enabled by an artificial intelligence-based network of sensors
Eu-trains aims to reinforce the supply chain on sensors for biomechanics and cardiovascular system real-time monitoring targeting applications in the fields of fitness and healthcare. it leverages from the strength of eu digital microsystem and design to support a 100% made-in-europe supply chain of solutions which encompass smart-textile integration as well as advanced ai-based edge-cloud data processing.
In details the following outcomes are foreseen:
- textile integrated electronic systems for real-time monitoring of hearth, respiratory and movement parameters on-the-air and in-water through an interdisciplinary approach;
- semiconductor technologies which allow the re-use of micro-nano systems both in the sports and in the healthcare sectors;
- miniaturized devices allowing the capturing of bio-chemical parameters able to withstand harsh ambient conditions such as salt fogs, chlorine, detergents, high and low temperatures, etc.
The following key activities are targeted:
- development, prototyping and demonstration of versatile sensors with edge ai features for improved precision and reliability, that can also be integrated in textiles as well as in smart wearable wrist-watches and in sport equipment and gears targeting also underwater applications;
- cloud-edge artificial intelligence combined approaches for reliable diagnosis of body parameters. this will comprise sensor’s self-learning, remote update, multi-sensing approaches based on sensor arrays;
- novel materials that support electronics printing in textiles with stretchability and self-healing capabilities.
Societal benefits are foreseen in the transition to a healthier lifestyle by promoting regular physical activity through affordable tools and services for a large audience, including people with disabilities. moreover, this will impact the smart/remote-healthcare sector which will benefit of the availability of low-cost microfabricated solutions for intelligent, versatile, connected body sensors.
