Assignment
Two furniture pieces At the Workplace Vitality HUB are designed specifically with the aim to provide the right conditions for a power nap, including relaxing music and a massage. We would like to support their effectiveness through physiological and neural measurements, translated into easy-to-understand metrics.
Equipment is available, both as ‘wearable’ sensors as well as more lab-oriented setups. An interesting outcome of the assignment will be to assess the suitability of the types of equipment.
Towards the future, we would like to work towards a personalized or even ‘closed-loop’ treatment. Literature study and initial steps towards this aim can be optionally made part of the assignment.
Hence, the tasks can be summarized as follows:
- Literature study
- Design and execution of a test including human volunteers
- Data processing
- Reporting and documentation
What we do for you
You will be working on novel R&D in the field of biofeedback, aiming at improving the vitality of office workers. You will have the opportunity to lead your own project while having the support of an international team of experts on physiological and neural sensing and processing, while using unique (wearable) sensor technology. For your work in imec you will receive a fair compensation.
