Elevating performance: Innovative design strategies for body-worn (diagnostic or biosensing) devices

How does technology help us to support a person’s sense of wellbeing and/or performance? Beyond technology and metrics, how do a body-worn (electronic/biosensing) device be designed to fit the person in different contexts of use and different performance needs? We are investigating the role of designing with sensor technology (sensor technology agnostic) in body-worn devices from a Human Centred (HCD) lens, and Research through Design (RtD) approach.In today's fast-paced world, the pursuit of optimal human performance has become a paramount …

Transforming home healthcare: leveraging technology for enhanced people experience

People with chronic illnesses face numerous challenges when it comes to caring for their health at home. The daily management of symptoms, medication adherence, and self-care routines can be physically and mentally demanding, requiring significant effort and discipline. Additionally, limited access to direct medical supervision, medical equipment, resources, and support may lead to difficulties in monitoring symptoms and seeking timely medical attention, further adding to the burden of self-care.From a human-centered design perspective, technology enhances the home healthcare experience through …

My flow: Menstrual cycle Femtech for elite athlete performance optimisation through wearable technology

There is a need for additional studies to monitor on-field performance parameters in female elite athletes (Meignié 2021). We know that wearable sensors can be used to monitor the physiological and biochemical profile of athletes (Seshadri 2019), and a combination of several wearables is going to be more effective for accessing all relevant parameters (Düking 2016). However, there is limited research on the effects of menstrual cycle phases on elite athlete performance (Meignié 2021).This proposed research aims to bridge the …
