UBORA: Open Biomedical Engineering e-platform for Innovation through Education
UBORA is an e-platform for open-source co-design of new solutions to face current and future global healthcare challenges by exploiting networking, knowledge on rapid prototyping of new ideas and sharing of safety criteria and performance data.
UBORA e-infrastructure connects the clinical need to the medical device solution.
Projects collaborated on UBORA e-platform
UBORA features a project collaboration tool to guide the process of developing a biomedical device in an open-source manner that is in accordance with the international safety standards. All projects are overlooked by the UBORA certified mentors. You can freely create a new project or join existing ones to start collaborating with the community.
Palpreast
Palpreast is a wearable stretchy top with a pressure sensing textile that is adapted to breast with an inflation system. This system applies an external pressure to simulate hand movement that detects the presence of nodules, which are stiffer than the breast tissue.
- Clinical need:
- Remote or self-diagnosis
- Area:
- Oncology
Protective Mask
Different masks designed to help patients with broken nose. In addition, the mask will cover faces with burns and landmine injury from solar radiation and exterior agents. It's apparel is aesthetically pleasing in order to give children more confidence to play with their friends.
- Clinical need:
- Rehabilitation
- Area:
- Rehabilitation
- Device classification:
- I
Portable neonatal warmer
Portable Neonate Warmer (PNW) provides the appropriate thermal protection and temperature monitoring for neonates with hypothermia that are being transported to a health facility from home.
