There is an increasing awareness of the impact of air quality on human health. In the short term, poor air quality can exacerbate asthma, and lead to respiratory ailments. Longer term exposure to poor quality air can increase the risks of strokes, lung cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other a range of respiratory conditions. There is some evidence it may also affect the brain, increasing risk of dementia and cognitive decline in older people, and also have impacts in pregnancy and child development.

The iSee project was created as a social initiative to use technology to aid blind people with mobility outside. To date, technology, when it has been used at all, is deployed mainly to assist the visual disabled indoors. By contrast, for outdoor environments, there has been limited progress, with most sight impaired people relying on traditional options such as guide dogs, white canes and Braille signage.

Analysis of neurological problems via EEG (electroencephalograms) is a complex medical domain. Historically it has relied on highly trained staff across the full diagnostic pathway, from setting up and managing EEG tests to analysis of the data. For certain issues – for example following seizures or head trauma, a rapid analysis is highly desirable, whereas for others long term monitoring is beneficial.

Construction sites with large machinery such as diggers, cranes or fork lift trucks can be dangerous places. Even if sites are well managed, there remain significant risks. Sharing Worker makes innovative use of technology to make construction sites safer.

Building management is evolving into a more sophisticated process, balancing the dual priorities of enhancing occupant well-being and optimizing energy efficiency. Resense Move by Distech Controls sets a new standard in achieving these objectives, delivering advanced sensing capabilities.
