Embedded Applications
Key issue in the area of ICT is integration among smart devices with the aim to build intelligent living environments. This innovation line is requesting the availability of connected transparent sensors capable of gathering valuable data, devoted miniaturised actuators able to respond to instructions and, generally, ubiquitous devices that can communicate among them and with central and remote control systems.
Ab.Acus has been actively working in the integration of heterogeneous devices in broad and multi-purpose infrastructures, with a particular focus in the management of sensors for remote health monitoring. Our expertise covers the full stack process, from the firmware for on-board management of communication to the middleware for cloud-based data storage, passing through data gateways setup and software interfaces for the local management of the devices.
Our long track experience in dealing with different commercial and prototypical devices allows us to daily renovate the knowledge needed to effectively interface hardware and software platforms, while enlarging the panorama of available and connected data sources.
INFINITY
INFINITY - Disruptive gait analysis platform that uses the properties of RF communication to compute clinical gait parameters, during walking along paths with custom shapes.
longITools
LongITools is a European research project studying the interactions between the environment, lifestyle and health in determining the risks of chronic cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
MoveCare
MoveCare develops and field tests an innovative multi-actor platform that supports the independent living of the elder at home by monitoring, assisting and promoting activities to counteract decline and social exclusion.
SMILING
The SMILING project has planned to diminish age related impairments by interfering with mobility disability and improving carry-over into real life situations. The new approach is intended to challenge the patient to solve new motor problems in real time by inducing variable environments that need active response and problem solving from the target population.
Happy Ageing
The goal HAPPY AGING is to counterbalance the limitations due to ageing and implement a system to monitor daily activities and support in everyday life. The main objectives are support independent living at home of elderly people, match demand of technology by elderly with the current supply of the market and develop and integrate a customizable system able to fulfill older people needs and expectations.
