At Elitac Wearables, we develop wearables from idea to commercially viable product – and any stage in-between – for the medical and safety domains. We specialise in integrating electronics and textiles, with a particular focus on haptic feedback technology and sensors. With our wearables, we want to help improve the daily lives of at least one million people before 2035. Development projects include: > BalanceBelt: Giving balance disorder patients back their freedom. > NeuroShirt: Allowing surgeons to stay focused and operate more safely. > SmartShoulder: Keeping service engineers safe, even in remote areas. > Mission Navigation Belt: Helping soldiers stay safer by letting them concentrate fully on their surroundings while navigating. Research projects include: > WEAFING: Developing an electro-active textile that will revolutionise wearables design. Funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020. > GaitKeeper: Making it easier, faster, and safer for above knee amputees to learn how to walk with a prosthesis. Funded by Eurostars. > 3DNav: Helping visually impaired people move around more safely. Funded by the Province of Utrecht.
