Transforming Health Monitoring: UltraSense Consortium Meeting

Our recent consortium meeting for the UltraSense EU project, funded by Horizon Europe, crystallized key aspects of the project aimed at revolutionizing health monitoring and lifestyle management in Europe.

Project Overview: UltraSense addresses obesity and promotes healthier lifestyles through a wearable tool for body composition analysis and decentralized health monitoring. Our collaboration includes academic and research institutions, health and fitness technology companies, and R&D organizations.

Key Highlights:

  • Technology: UltraSense integrates smart features, AI signal processing, and advanced stretchable materials to provide precise health data.
  • Use Cases: The wearable device will be validated in promoting healthier lifestyles through sport and monitoring metabolic syndrome (MetSyn).
  • Sustainability: UltraSense aims to reduce CO2 emissions by over 70%, with anticipated societal and economic benefits, including job creation and revenue generation.

Consortium Meeting Insights:

  • Defining Requirements: Specific requirements for the wearable device and its components were outlined.
  • Business Roadmap: A comprehensive business roadmap was developed.
  • Specifications: Detailed specifications for components and systems were established.
  • Regulatory Strategy: Compliance with relevant standards and guidelines was discussed.
  • LCA Plan: A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) plan was prepared.
  • Advanced Materials and Sensor Design: Focused on designing advanced materials and sensor compartments, integrating them into a flexible and stretchable platform.

Supported by the European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA) and funded by the European Commission under the #HorizonEurope Framework Programme, UltraSense aims to democratize body composition and health assessment, making it accessible to all. Stay tuned for more updates as we advance this project.
