SmartNurse and WhiteRabbit were among the 16 proposals accepted from the very first Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Innovation Launchpad call, and invited to grant agreement preparation.

Brief descriptions of the projects follow:

SmartNurse is a FETLaunchpad winning proposal originated in the SmartSociety project that aims at developing (a) smart teaching assistant(s) for individualised training of student nurses. Such systems will offer information on demand (e.g. instant feedback, regulations or quick-check information, hints, …), and also provide feedback if the activities performed by the trainee during training sessions are not performed to required training goals. This application will allow student nurses to learn faster and get specific individual support.

WhiteRabbit is a FETLaunchpad winning proposal originated in the SmartSociety project that aims at developing a off-the-shelf software platform able to become a ‘privacy accountant’ that, with minimal configuration and investment, will allow to extract value from data while keeping its subjects in the loop and also complying with upcoming regulations. Such platform will allow companies to manage personal data in a quicker, less expensive and more end-user driven way.

We have released the video above which demonstrates the practical applications of our research in emergency care situations. In this case study, nurses or student nurses wearing a Smart-Assistant (in this example Smart-Eye-Ware) are attempting to resuscitate a patient (doll). Besides offering information on demand in their HMD (e.g. instant feedback, regulations or quick-check information, hints), the Smart-Assistant also detects specific activities like performing chest compressions and provides feedback if the activity is not performed to required standards.

This research expands on work presented in the award winning papers: Smart-Watch Life Saver: Smart-Watch Interactive-Feedback System for Improving Bystander CPR and Recognizing Hospital Care Activities with a Pocket Worn Smartphone (award details here).
