Eurostars is a joint European program co-financed by the national budgets of 36 EUREKA countries and the European Union until Horizon 2020. As a UK funding agency, Innovate UK will sponsor my mhealth Limited to develop part of its myHeart app to support heart rehabilitation in Europe.

Together with three experienced European partners; The project Ospedale Malcantonese (OSCAM) (Switzerland), Games for Health (Netherlands) and the University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI) (Switzerland) aims to use the cardiac rehabilitation element of the myHeart app and to integrate biofeedback , intelligent algorithms and gamification functions. During the three years of planning and development, the platform will be formally explored in the UK and several European countries through formal clinical studies.

The CUOREMA project focuses on the development of a new, patient-centered and intelligent system to support cardiac rehabilitation. The scalable, adaptable and flexible technology aims to provide a new systematic method for social and biological feedback from wearable devices. The app will include integrated behavior change support systems using mixed reality and immersive technology to improve medical compliance and clinical outcomes.

The Eurostars program is a funding and support program for SMEs with R&D performance who want to take advantage of international cooperation. The application process is extremely competitive with 506 applications from 36 countries. The evaluation process considers three key areas for evaluation. Quality, impact and excellence.

A new substance developed by a team of Chinese scientists that works like a smartphone could have applications in communication, navigation, healthcare, and security. SWNS The high-tech garment could improve safety for cyclists, drivers and emergency services. For example, the brush on a sleeve could instantly display a “fabric card” on its arm. The inexpensive material turns a jacket into a touchscreen - and according to the SWNS news agency, it could be in stores by Christmas. Powered by solar energy, it combines conductive and luminescent fibers with cotton. Wearable technology has been promised for years, but creating large displays that are built into functional systems has proven difficult. Researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai spectacularly tackled this problem with a display fabric nearly 20 feet long and 10 inches wide.
