Life and Work 5.0

In an increasingly digitalized world, the symbiosis of technology and society is at the heart of Life and Work 5.0. From health solutions to innovative working models - the focus lies on human-technology interaction that improves quality of life and work processes in equal measure.

Research questions:

  • How can wearables personalize medical care for patients?
  • What role does augmented reality play in improving industrial work processes?
  • How can digital technology increase the resilience of work and society in crisis situations?

Research with us.
We are looking forward to hearing from you!

Current Research Projects

 

ParkProReakt

A web platform is being developed in the ParkProReakt project, which is intended to provide extensive knowledge about Parkinson's disease. On the digital platform, patients can not only exchange information with their doctors, but also receive support for self-help. In addition, a mobile application will be developed in conjunction with a wearable (e.g., a smartwatch), to track certain values of patients and transmit them directly to the attending physician.
