SiFi Labs
SiFi Labs is a MedTech startup dedicated to revolutionizing the field of ambulatory monitoring and predictive medicine through the development of cutting-edge wearables and artificial intelligence AI solutions.
They developed the SifiBand, an armband with 21 data streams, including an 8-channel electromyogram (EMG) system, and the Biopoint, a smartwatch-sized biosensor hub that can also generate visual and vibrotactile feedback.
The demonstration will be given by Xavier Isabel, CPI, Vice-President of Operations at SiFi Labs. For 4 years, he studied the control of closed-loop myoelectric prostheses with people living with an amputation and developed several video games to make training more engaging. In 2023, he developed an AI infrastructure to predict the risks and complications of childbirth, in collaboration with the CHU Toulouse and CHU Sainte-Justine.
For further information, please consult the SiFi Labs website.
Objectives of the activity :
- Discover the SifiBand and the Biopoint developed by Sifi Labs.
- Explore avenues of collaboration in research projects.
