Course description The course provides an overview on the design of wearable and implantable computing systems. The overview is structured in three parts: context recognition, electronic systems and sensors, and additive manufacturing methods. Pattern analysis and machine learning methods to pro... Continue

Background: The smart eyeglasses for the dietary monitoring project require the eyeglasses frame to fit the patient's head, including the mechanical attachment between the head and the frame as well as sensor placement and orientation. Therefore parametric modeling of the eyeglasses for ease of... Continue

Background: The wearable sensor node used in the smart eyeglasses for dietary monitoring system have a very strict size limitation, as well as numerous feature requirements. The possible improvements for the next generation of the PCB may include better memory, energy management, and BLE connec... Continue

Background Printed wearable electronics are required for fast prototyping complex systems with very fine tolerance and strict size requirements. The conductive traces built into or printed on top of the 3d-printed parts are essential for the device's function. The electrical properties of sp... Continue

Background Privacy and functionality are usually considered at odds with each other. As data privacy practices are enforced, data becomes a scarce resource. In order to balance the protection of user privacy with functional services, the European Union enforced the general data protection regula... Continue

Background: Wearables, including smartwatches, as well as smartphones are equipped with several sensors, which allow monitoring of data relevant to retrieve digital biomarkers. Some of the biomarkers measured by wearables are already common in daily life (e.g. step counters), which foreshadows a fu... Continue

Background Agent-based models can be used to simulate population behaviour. Using the simulated behaviours, we can analyse the different components that affect the spread of infections. Our current experience with the pandemic has shown that different regions might have a different response to s... Continue

Background The German digital health applications (“Digitale Gesundheitsanwendung”, DiGA) provides ground for the rapid time-to-market of health and medical apps. This seminar starts with an international overview on digital health app regulations and introduction to the German DiGA. Key topics inc... Continue
