We are happy to participate in various research projects
that address topics of future importance.
Our innovation department works closely
with renowned partners from research and industry
to create new solutions for the healthcare sector.
On this page, we present our innovative projects
that we have successfully completed.
We are driven by the desire to always be at the cutting edge of technology. That is why we are shaping the future in various projects, some of which are publicly funded, together with partners from research institutions and industry! In addition to various healthcare topics, civil security is particularly close to our hearts!

Since 2007, Hessen has had a specialized outpatient palliative care service (SAPV) for children with incurable and serious illnesses. Three SAPV teams care for these children and their families at home, even at night and on weekends, despite the fact that there are often long distances between the teams and the patients.
The TelPa Kids project aims to develop an app that enables secure communication between patients, their families, and pediatric palliative care teams. The app will enable video calls, the transfer of medical findings, photos, videos, and heart and lung sound recordings from a digital stethoscope. The app is intended to improve patient care without compromising personal care. It will be tested as part of the project to determine its effectiveness and benefits.
SDC – Tele-Supervision
Project duration: 10/2021 – 09/2024

The EULE project aims to enable the safe and efficient transport of medical goods in the Rhineland region. To this end, it relies on the use of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to efficiently connect hospitals, laboratories, and pharmaceutical wholesalers.
The use of new mobility applications by UAS opens up great potential for significantly improving medical care in both urban and rural areas. In addition, the project supports the digital networking of medical logistics processes, which is being driven forward by advancing digitalization.
Project duration: November 2021 – April 2024
VitaSecure aims to improve care conditions in nursing homes and reduce treatment costs. To this end, an intelligent sensor system is being developed that reliably records vital signs over long periods of time without physical contact. This innovative technology is made possible by combining radar and image-based sensor technology.
In addition, a customized documentation and early warning system is being developed that is specifically tailored to the requirements of the care sector and provides situational warnings and action routines to nursing staff so that they can respond early to deteriorating conditions and significantly improve the care of those in need of care.

The ExoSENSE project aims to develop scalable, textile-based sensor technologies in an international collaboration between Korean and German partners. These sensors will be integrated into advanced rehabilitation devices and exoskeletons to enable precise, efficient, and intuitive medical rehabilitation.
The technology enables patients to control their movements themselves and allows real-time monitoring of the course of therapy via a cloud-based solution. It overcomes the limitations of existing sensor systems and lays the foundation for controlling more complex exoskeletons in the future.
The TeleSAN project aims to evaluate the use of telemedicine in civil defense situations. In situations such as terrorist attacks or natural disasters, command and emergency services face particular challenges. The TeleSAN app enables emergency services to connect with telemedicine experts, including emergency doctors and specialists, who can provide remote support with triage, first aid, and individualized medical treatment. The app also provides treatment algorithms and instructions to give professional and lay responders the greatest possible confidence in their actions during operations.

Due to demographic change and the simultaneous shortage of skilled workers in geriatric care, medical care in nursing facilities is becoming increasingly demanding. The AIDA project aimed to overcome these challenges.
As part of AIDA, a telemedicine application called TeleDoc was used to involve general practitioners in routine visits to elderly care facilities via remote access. The main goal of AIDA was to deploy both medical and nursing staff more efficiently, analyze changes in elderly care from an ergonomic perspective, and ensure comprehensive
patient care.

The FALKE project is developing a system that enables partially automated searching and screening of injured persons in disaster situations.
To this end, contactless vital sign detection is being developed through the combination of video, thermal imaging, and radar sensors. These sensors are mounted on an unmanned aerial system (UAS) to provide an overview of the accident site before emergency services arrive. The UAS determines the position of the injured and can determine their vital signs using the integrated sensors. The assessment of the injured is checked by a senior emergency physician via a secure data connection using telemedicine and corrected if necessary.
