Learning Outcomes
IoT systems and Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) have recently been introduced in several medical application domains (e.g. aging assisted living, patient monitoring in and out of hospital etc). The two main characteristics of those systems is that they are interconnected using different network technologies while they should support very high levels of security. Students learns how to basically develop such systems and how to make them secure. Moreover, new technologies like Virtual Reality, Robotics and IoT currently play a major role in health care. Also they learn about clinically Certified, powerful medical simulators, advanced general surgery and neurosurgery systems which make use of augmented reality and image-guided surgery to improve outcomes and efficiency and robotics which are used in orthopedics and cardiology, as well as, general practice.
General Competences
  • Apply knowledge in practice
  • Work in teams
  • Work in an interdisciplinary team
