My organisation

INEGI - Institute of Science and Innovation in Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Engineering is a Research and Technology Organization from Porto, Portugal, and it is dedicated to research & development, innovation & technology transfer, consultancy and services activities, forming part of the University of Porto ecosystem. We are a private, non-profit entity of public interest, which supports the development of companies in general. Our expertise comprises many areas, such as mechanical design, aerospace, composite materials, biomechanics, environment, advanced manufacturing, management, energy, among others. For the health and sports sector, INEGI specializes in biomechanics, medical technology, sports, and occupational health & safety. We apply skills in the electromechanical design of medical devices or sports equipment, from computational modelling to numerical simulation, including the study of the mechano-behavior of biotissues. We also design human-centered approaches to support companies in their evolution towards Industry 5.0 focusing, for example, on improving company productivity, based on the occupational health of its workers, providing personalized methodologies and metrics for internal management and increased production efficiency. Our projects for Artificial Intelligence tools development aim to support decision-making processes within the Health & Sports sector, for disease detection or injury prevention, for instance.

INEGI – Institute of Science and Innovation in Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Engineering is a Research and Technology Organization (RTO) based in Porto, Portugal, focused on research and technology-based innovation activities, technology transfer, consulting and technological services, aiming to develop industry and economy in general. Our expertise comprises many areas, such as mechanical design, aerospace, composite materials, biomechanics, health and sports, environment, advanced manufacturing, management, tribology, energy, among others.

Health and Human Centricity Research Group

The group is composed by mechanical engineers, biomedical engineers, electronical engineers, Artificial Intelligence Engineers, and Human & Safety engineers. For defence, our activity focuses on: - Measurement and monitoring of physiological and cognitive state; - Optimisation of cognitive performance in human-machine interaction, including for human-robot teaming (collaborative robotics, smart wearables, exoskeletons,...); - Development of digital twins / digital tools for training. For that, we provide several competencies like: • Development of devices/technical solutions for medical rehabilitation applications; • Customised design of human-centred approaches for shopfloors, or healthcare institutes • Creation of physical and cognitive monitoring tools and wearables; • Design/optimization of sports equipment; • Human motion analysis in various contexts; • In-silico simulation and experimental validation of new materials, products, and/or algorithms; • Design of real-time monitoring tools or AI-based tools to support the treatment of health problems and risk mitigation;
