HEALTHY AIMS: Implantable micro-sensors and micro-systems for ambulatory measurement and control in medical products.
- Abstract
- In this project key microsystem technologies and communication methods will be developed that bring intelligence directly to the human, in the form of medical implants and ambulatory measurement systems, and also enable information from these devices to be transmitted out into the wider environment. The microsystem technologies to be developed can be applied to any generic Ambient intelligent' system comprising sensors, actuators, an intelligent processor and a wiring loom. The medical applications have been chosen for 2 reasons. Firstly, they will progress the existing State of the Art in Microsystems in terms of size, reliability, and power constraints far more than many other application sectors. In addition there will be a direct positive impact into the health of EU citizens. The overall objective is to develop the technologies that go to make up a microsystem, and then produce specific medical devices to exploit these technologies. The 4 year project, with 26 partners, is structured with the focus on the microsystem technology development, most of which doesn't include silicon. Thin is seen as crucial if complete microsystems are to be realised in the coming few years. The project includes participants from all of the disciplines necessary to produce a complete generic microsystem. The result will be a range of core technologies and medical devices utilising these core technologies. Intelligence will be given back to people where part of their own internal system has failed. Quality of life will be improved for millions of EU citizens and the long term cost of treating people will reduce sinificantly. The resulting final medical products include cochlear and retina implants, nerve stimulation, bladder control and blood monitoríng systems. It is estimated from the available statistics that around 50% of the western poulation i.e. around 500 million citizens, will suffer from at least one of the health problems targeted in this project.
