Short- and Long-Term Outcomes:

1. knowledge of and influence on development of emerging technologies relevant to healthcare.
2. effective demonstrations of new accessible interfaces used with medical devices.

Objectives:

1. to develop and demonstrate approaches for designing medical diagnostic, therapeutic and procedural equipment that is interoperable, and that integrates with minimally obtrusive evaluation and interactive telesupport,
2. in collaboration with other involved parties, to participate in the development of modality translation and telehealth interface systems and techniques.

Motivation

The initial focus in this project is on approaches that integrate interactive telesupport and universally usable interfaces, specifically for medical monitoring and therapeutic technologies. For both projects there have been two paths of focus: i) development and evaluation projects; and ii) technical report activities that help identify the current state of technology in strategic areas.

Project D3.1 / Access to Interoperable Monitoring and Therapy with Integrated Telesupport

This project develops and demonstrates approaches for designing medical diagnostic, therapeutic and procedural equipment that is interoperable, and that integrates with minimally obtrusive evaluation and interactive telesupport.

Progress

Project D3.2 / Modality Translation & Cross-Disability Interfaces for Communication

In collaboration with other parties, through this project the RERC participates in the development of innovative interfaces for communication that enable multimodal translation and more universal access telehealth interface systems and techniques. An example is the V2 standard.
