About the event

Why do most medical devices today provide so little data, even though they are used every day?

Hundreds of millions of assistive devices are in use worldwide—from insoles and prosthetics to orthopedic aids. They support people in their daily lives, but in most cases do not provide usable health data.

Yet there is enormous potential here:
If these devices were equipped with smart sensors, they could not only provide significantly better support but also greatly reduce the challenges for manufacturers and patients.

However, this is currently difficult to implement. For manufacturers, integrating sensors and data processing into existing products is complex, expensive, and time-consuming.

This is where sendance comes in.
In this expert talk, the sendance team provides insights into a platform technology that makes it possible to enhance existing assistive devices with sensors and data-driven analysis—without the need for a complete redesign.
This gives rise to a new generation of “smart” medtech products that not only provide support but can also understand and measure data and enable improvements.


What to Expect

  • Why most assistive devices today do not provide health data—and what potential remains untapped as a result

  • What challenges manufacturers face when integrating sensors and data

  • How platform solutions can make existing MedTech products “smart” faster

  • What role data-driven insights play in prevention, therapy, and user behavior

  • How this is giving rise to new business models for MedTech companies

  • Why the market for smart medical devices is growing rapidly and scalable solutions are in demand
