Digital rehabilitation & movement measurement in sport, health & wellbeing

Description

The rapid advance of digital technologies has brought big changes to human movement measurement. But the constant evolution and ‘push’ of products and techniques can make it difficult to get the functionality and cost you need for your business to innovate and grow. And how do you ensure value to your customers through best use of the data generated from these tools?
 
Join us at our breakfast event on 15th February to hear from Dr Ben Heller and Dr Marcus Dunn from the Sports Engineering Research Group on the latest research and innovations in digital human movement measurement, and discuss how to answer the ‘so what?’ question of value to your business and customers.
 
This event will provide an opportunity to network with other businesses in your sector, see the state-of-the-art facilities at our Advanced Wellbeing Research Centre, and explore how collaborating with the university can help you drive growth in your business. You’ll also find out more about the potential funding opportunities available to SMEs in and around the Sheffield City Region to support innovative idea development, including the Sheffield Innovation Programme and Innovate UK’s Knowledge Transfer Partnership scheme.
 
Provisional programme:
• Innovations in digital rehabilitation and human movement measurement
• How data visualisation methods can enhance customer value
• How SERG and AWRC work with the region’s SMEs to drive business growth through evaluation, testing, and validation of new ideas.
