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;
