The Next Level of Healthcare



The doctor will call you when you need it without potentially even knowing it – this is a vision the healthcare industry and the WT | Wearable Technologies AG have for now exactly 20 years.

One of this year’s focus topics is the next level of healthcare solutions using IoT and WT solutions to become more user-centric and more cost-efficient. Healthcare data and the dedicated sensors worn on the body or installed in the hospital or home environment will be the key enabler of a future-oriented healthcare system worldwide. The movement has already started many years ago, but due to solved interoperability topics, ongoing Moore's law miniaturization of chipsets, and the optimization of the power consumption of those tiny sensors – the breakthrough in this digitalized healthcare market is in front of our teeth. Stayed tuned for how patches, printed sensors, and batteries as well as completely new sensor solutions will enable new business models and new patient-centric care solutions.

Digital Twins powered by wearable technologies as the real-time information channel will enhance the human’s potential and augment real-time parameter monitoring and information forecasting. The so-called Metaverse and the direct interaction between humans and the related Digital Twin will be a major driver to act and live more efficiently, to drive prevention in healthcare, and by that reduce the fast-growing healthcare expenses globally. Augmentation means also enabling disabled people with technology extensions to overcome their burdens - from hearables to intelligent/robotic-based prostheses. 
  • Enabling Technologies for AR/VR
    August 1st, 11:40 – 12:30
  • Robots and Exoskeleton for Rehab, Prevention and Augmentation
    August 2nd, 9:30 – 10:30
  • New Use Cases Based on the Interaction between the Metaverse & Wearables
    August 2nd, 16:00 – 17:30

Deep Tech and Innovations

Technology is the only way to overcome current and future problems in our society. To stay at the forefront of technological developments, the WT Wearable Technologies Events always have a strong focus on the latest developments in the field of innovative Deep Tech, including sensors, radio frequencies, batteries, charging technologies, and design/manufacturing solutions. Complementing Deep Tech, other innovations are needed. At our conference, those innovations will be brought in by world-leading techpreneurs competing in the famous Innovation World Cup® Series. A pitch session in the evening of the first conference day will showcase the latest global innovations in the field of wearables for healthcare, wellness, sport, and workforce safety as well as workforce optimization.
