ACOMODIA
Subproject: Mobile, Efficient Provision of Medically Relevant Information Using Smart Glasses
1. Project Overview
The ACOMODIA subproject develops and evaluates an innovative smart-glasses solution for the mobile, context-aware delivery of clinically relevant information across various medical care and training settings.
Project duration: 07 July 2025 – 31 December 2027
Funding amount: €184,658.96
2. Background & Research Objectives
In clinical practice, quickly accessible and situation-appropriate information is often lacking—whether at the patient’s bedside, in the operating room, or in medical training.
This project therefore investigates how smart-glasses technology can be used to provide medical data precisely when and where it is needed.
The main objectives are:
-
Development of an adaptive, context-aware information platform
-
Improvement of efficiency and safety in clinical workflows
-
Evaluation of the technology in various real clinical environments
-
Use as a modern learning and training tool in medical education
3. Methods & Approach
The project combines technological development with clinical evaluation.
Key work areas include:
-
Development of an intelligent smart-glasses platform for automated information delivery
-
Integration into different clinical environments (wards, intensive care, operating room)
-
Collection and analysis of user feedback and clinical performance data
-
Pilot use in clinical–practical medical training
The technology includes context-sensitive information filtering, real-time data access, and visual overlays.
