IoT: Tap into the Strategic Value of Data
We’ve all heard that “knowledge is power” or that “knowledge is a competitive advantage”. Still, to arrive at knowledge there are a few earlier steps that need to be taken. The first building block towards knowledge is data, which (when organized) provides us with useful information, thus leading over time to knowledge and insight. “The […]
Recovering better: remote and continuous vitality monitoring
As part of the European project NextPerception— Evalan has been developing intelligent sensing technology that will allow for continuous and remote vitality monitoring of patients.
Measuring frequently with IoT adds more value
Continuous low-resolution monitoring with IoT yields more value than infrequent accurate measurements. How does this work? In this article, we highlight how continuous data collection can lead to better work processes.
Wearables provide safety in tough work environments
Safety has the highest priority in physically demanding professions. Wearables can help develop new ways to ensure safety without sacrificing performance.
Remote care: technology is developing rapidly
In recent months, Covid-19 showed that we are not where we need to be when it comes to remote care. Still, there is much progress made in the field of technology. A lot is possible, but are healthcare professionals and society ready for it?
Using wearables to improve athletic performance
In sports, increasing the level of performance is essential for success. Stakeholders such as sports clubs, coaches, and athletes, are increasingly investing in technology to enhance their chances to win. One of the technologies that are gaining ground in this respect is wearable technology.
Supporting healthcare professionals with wearables
With the arrival of the new coronavirus, the use of technological solutions in healthcare has accelerated. An example of a technological product that can contribute significantly to improving quality in healthcare is the wearable.
New muscle analyzer system for sarcopenia
Evalan started the MAS project together with the Uppsala University in Sweden and the MUMC in Maastricht. During this project a muscle analyzer system will be developed that measures the density of muscles by means of microwave technology.
Evalan develops respiratory rate sensor for European project NextPerception
A new European project, NextPerception, is developing intelligent sensing technology for the next generation of solutions for the healthcare and automotive industry. On the one hand, the focus of the project is on patient-centered care, in which improved monitoring systems aim at early detection and prevention of deterioration in health. On the other hand, sensor solutions are being developed for the automotive industry to improve pedestrian safety and automated driving. During this project, Evalan focuses on the first use case, healthcare, and is developing a respiratory rate sensor specifically for cardiac care.
New IoT development project for monitoring intake tube feeding
The European innovation program Eureka has started a new project, of which Evalan is part. For 3 years, 18 organizations from different countries will work working together intensively on this FoodFriend project to develop technologies that can better measure the influence of food on the human body. This concerns both the intake of food and its absorption by the body.
