Introduction
The constant change in our society brings with it some challenges for the healthcare sector and new requirements for medical technology:
- Aging population
- Lack of nurses
- Independent living at home into old age
- Promotion of preventive health measures
- Supply bottlenecks in rural areas
- Health trends like self-tracking
That is why the need for supportive assistance systems and biofeedback technologies that record biometric data will increase in the future. Technical innovations are required that are accessible to everyone, regardless of age and place of residence. Medical technology must become more mobile and holistic in the future.
