Sensors and controllers for artificial hearts
Artificial pumps run at constant speed – no matter if the patient sleeps or exercises. In the long run, a mismatch between the patient’s perfusion needs and the pump supply leads to life-threatening complications. The Zurich Heart Group has developed integrated sensors and algorithms that control the pump speed according to the patient’s needs.
Real-time Prediction of Human Error
Human error in industrial and clinical applications can be associated with high risk and cost. In this work, we developed an application for Microsoft HoloLens 2 that can predict a user’s mistakes before they are executed.
