Spain is the second country with the highest use of wearable devices: devices that, like hardware solutions, allow us to interact with environmental information.
Today we present a selection of 11 projects dedicated to the development of hardware & wearable devices that are revolutionizing the Spanish market.
Oliver provides users with key information to improve performance, evolve talents and prevent injuries; through the combination of low-cost GPS with sports science and a mobile application for downloading and visualizing data. Oli, the smart device, is placed inside the shin cover and has more than 10 sensors to collect data in the field.
Walden Medical designs and develops intelligent non-invasive neurostimulation solutions for the treatment of neurological and psychiatric diseases. His first project, Xana (a headset connected to a mobile application and a cloud that allows us to record all the information and offer personalized treatments) attacks the problem of the vagus nerve to improve, among others, the stress management of its users.
Innitius is a company specialized in the development of in vivo diagnostic technologies. Their first device, Fine Birth, is an intravaginal device capable of measuring changes in properties in cervical tissues, making it possible to differentiate in real time between false preterm labor and true labor. With Fine Birth, hospitals reduce the costs associated with unnecessary hospitalization while reducing the sequelae of newborns in spontaneous preterm births. Oriwami was born as an NB-IoT connectivity solution for the care of elderly people who live alone. The sensor-based device is installed in the homes of older people and provides useful and updated information to their families, so they can monitor them in a non-intrusive way. With Oriwami, family members receive alerts via WhatsApp about unusual activity that the devices, which are loaned on a rental basis, record.
Qoob has developed a charging and custody station for all types of personal mobility vehicles (VMP), with the aim of promoting sustainable urban micromobility. Qoob stations offer different services, including: parking, rental and repair of personal mobility vehicles, such as electric scooters. In addition, through the application, the user can monitor the state of charge of their vehicle in real time.
Smiletronix makes use of artificial intelligence to improve oral care and health. His first device is capable of capturing, in just ten seconds, images of the oral cavity of patients of all ages and of generating a report, which the patient receives on his own mobile phone. The solution is rechargeable and shareable (up to 10 different profiles can use the same device).
Eficagua works, through the integration of technology and biotechnology, to optimize agricultural soils, improve crops and make better use of fresh water (minimizing water leakage from source to crop and maximizing water that is converted into harvest). The company organizes workshops, presentations and conferences to students, agronomists and farmers.
Epowerlabs provides engineering and product development services for electric mobility solutions (focused on the traction unit for multi-application vehicles). The Epowerlabs team offers product development, testing and validation services, as well as customized solutions for each of its customers who require it.
Insulclock offers a comprehensive system for monitoring and managing diabetes in real time. The Insulclock team has developed an electronic device, adaptable to all pens for the supply of insulin, which allows diabetic patients to control different parameters such as the amount and type of insulin administered on each occasion and to control, among others, the use of the insulin pen, blood glucose levels and physical activity performed; all from one place.
Sloowy offers customers a digital service for renting chairs and umbrellas by the minute. The process is simple: the user just has to go to the Slow Points located around different coastal cities and choose the furniture they want to rent; payment is made through the mobile application at the end of the rental. Sloowy allows locations that require it (hotels, beach bars, hammocks, etc.) to have their own Slow Points.
Fossa Systems works with the main objective of reinventing the design and manufacture of satellites, in order to reduce the cost of existing IoT solutions in the market. Its devices weigh less than 1 kg, which reduces launch costs and allows the company to guarantee deadlines of less than 9 months for it. Fossa Systems' solutions are useful in many sectors, from the more traditional ones such as agriculture and livestock to much more digitalized ones such as security and blockchain.
