What is the School about?The school emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of wearable sensors, integrating aspects from engineering, computer science, and health sciences.
The school covers the development of wearable devices, exploring materials and fabrication techniques that are suitable for various applications, from clinical settings to sports. The algorithms section delves into the data processing and analysis methods essential for interpreting the vast amounts of data generated by wearable sensors. In clinical settings, wearables are used for continuous monitoring of vital signs, early detection of health conditions, and rehabilitation tracking. In occupational settings, these devices focus on ergonomics, monitoring stress levels, and ensuring the safety of workers in high-risk environments. Lastly, in sports, wearables are tailored for performance optimization, injury prevention, and biomechanical analysis. |
Main topics
The school’s curriculum is designed for students, researchers, and professionals seeking to advance their knowledge in wearable technology, offering a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical applications to meet the diverse needs of healthcare, workplace safety, and athletic performance. |
