Research

Overview

Our research and development focuses on innovative systems and procedures for diagnostics and medical monitoring. The aim is to develop user-friendly, efficient and sustainable solutions. To this end, we research new sensor principles and sensor systems, but also further develop established procedures and supplement them by combining hardware and software.

 

The fields of work and expertise at our chair lie in three areas (details on the fields of work and expertise can be found  here):

  • Sensors and measurement technology
  • Sensor data processing
  • Modelling and simulation
The work in such three areas is closely interlinked and builds on each other.

Through the use, further development and combination of solutions from the above-mentioned areas, we address various applications, which are mainly in three application areas (details on the application areas can be found  here):

  • Multi- and hyperspectral imaging for health
  • Intelligent intensive care medicine
  • Smart devices and smart data accessing

The areas of application cover various medical disciplines, including anesthesia, cardiology and neurology, but also care and non-medical use cases from the fields of sport and assistance systems. Our work benefits from the fact that concepts and skills are generic and therefore versatile. An overview of projects at the chair can be found at here.

Partners and cooperation

There are various collaborations with clinical partners, academic partners and companies. Our chair is constantly striving to expand the existing collaborations. The aims and possibilities of the collaborations include applying for and carrying out joint projects, the placement of working students, the exchange of information on current topics and trends in the field of medical informatics and medical technology as well as the shared use of the chair's laboratories and measurement technology facilities. Interested parties are welcome to contact us at any time.

Methods and equipment

In its own research and development, the Chair can draw on expertise and its own methods from various preliminary studies (see also   publications at the Chair for Diagnostic Sensing)

 

In addition, a wide range of measurement technology, techniques for stimulating physiological reactions and laboratory setups for simulation are available. These facilities allow experimental work to be carried out in complex settings. Such possibilities are also made available to partners in consultation with the chair.
