Smart sensing
We offer expertise in the creation of advanced solutions with wireless sensors to acquire data from the environment or from a person (using health/medical devices like scales, blood pressure, oximeters, etc).
We have experience in development of complete solutions including client (mobile) applications to collect data from sensors and to interact with the end users and server side solution to store, integrate and analyse collected data.

Indoor positioning
Our group has several years of experience in the development of indoor positioning technologies successfully applied to industrial projects, to Ambient Assisted Living projects and also to academic research projects.
Remark the 1st and the 2nd place in an international competition for indoor positioning systems.

Smart boxes
We can create advanced pervasive solutions to enable the interaction between caregiver/medical staff and the elderly or patients. The interaction can done using different technologies and interfaces (including TV, smart phones, desktop computers or embedded devices) and can include the ability to automatically collect data from medical sensors.
