Attention Check
Eye-opening insights Consumers make about 95% of their decisions without conscious awareness. Attention Check objectively maps out their behavior by using biometrics such as eye tracking, skin conductance, and brain activity. In this way we tap into the non-conscious processes that truly underlie human behavior. In addition we run large N (e.g. 1000) online psychological […]
DeepEye
Calibration-free webcam eye-tracker based on deep learning DeepEye records eye movements using a regular webcam and cutting-edge AI algorithms. Eye-tracking is widely used to understand how humans process information. This information provides solutions for scientific research, marketing & advertising, building human-computer interfaces, and diagnosing mental disorders. DeepEye is designed to make eye-tracking available to everyone […]
Dreamteam Profit
As a student, you have a lot on your plate and therefore, need to prioritize. Unfortunately, not every student makes their health a priority. Luckily, your health is our top priority. We are Dream Team Profit, a group of students from different backgrounds, and our goal is to boost your health through two projects.
Fundamental Frequencies
Fundamental Frequencies founders are two electronic engineers with a passion for music, and we’ve been talking to a lot of musicians and we’ve been asking them what do they really want? We keep getting the same reply. They want to go back to the sounds of the modular analog synthesizer of the 70‚Äôs. That’s why […]
Omnia-Pleq
We create Smart Campus Tools. We use sensors and data to improve campus experience for students, while also innovating campus management for the University. We started to develop the PLEQ-app, a study spot finder based on real time occupancy data of study rooms around campus. We want to create the future campus. A campus where […]
PreActive
The health solution for home and office workers As home-based work becomes part of the new normal, people will be more exposed to work-related injury risk factors – namely physical inactivity and poor workstation setups. If left unmanaged, the resultant rise in work-related injuries could be devastating for both companies and individuals. PreActive challenges these […]
Pulse Racing
Wij zijn PULSE Racing, een van de dreamteams van de VU, en zetten ons in om functionele elektrostimulatie (FES) voor mensen met een dwarslaesie verder door te ontwikkelen. Met behulp van FES kunnen ook deze patiënten hun beenspieren blijven gebruiken. En dat biedt voordelen voor zowel hun mentale- als fysieke gezondheid.
S2S-AI
Climate change is affecting extreme weather – we identify how and when society is at risk Seasonal to sub-seasonal (S2S) predictability could provide societies with valuable information on weather-related risk, allowing decision-makers to initiate early warning action plans and to optimize resource management. Using Artificial Intelligence (AI), we are developing a rigorous data-driven framework that […]
Sonoptic
AI-based, wearable visual aid technology 1 in 30 Europeans suffers from visual impairment, and 75% of them are unemployed. Taking the form of a pair of glasses, Sonoptic is an AI based solution helps the visually impaired at work, at home and in education by providing three key features: Object identification – to help find […]
Strike-f(x)
The intelligent boxing bag for immediate, accurate, and reliable monitoring of impact force Strike-f(x) is an intelligent boxing bag for immediate, accurate, and reliable monitoring of impact force. Strike-f(x) is designed to give individuals total freedom of movement – to punch, kick, knee, tackle – and, yet, have accurate and reliable feedback about the force, […]
