Eddie · Eddie – smart neurorehabilitation software

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are a major public health, medical, and societal challenge globally. In the European Unionalone, an estimated 57,000 deaths and 1.5 million hospital admissions annually have been attributed to TBI. Hospitaladmission rate of 287.2 per 100,000 persons per year.To avoid a chronic phase of disorders, early, long-term, continual, targeted and complex neurorehabilitation for patients ishighly required. The complex neurorehabilitative approach includes a cognitive rehabilitation from early stages of onset.Smart neurorehabilitation software Eddie is a project based on clinical psychological experience, current state of knowledgein neuroplasticity, big data analysing and prediction model based on machine learning and big data analysis. It is theapplication aimed at patients from early onset of treatment who need to restore cognitive function and is designed for longterm neurorehabilitation.Within phase 1 of SME-Instrument we want to elaborate feasibility study with 4 specific objectives -1. Technical verification – test a prototype of the smart neurocognitive rehabilitation software in connection to the upcoming technologies, such as haptics and bionics provide a user friendly interface for rehabilitation, on healthy people. Secondly to test the application for patients with traumatic brain injury.2. Market research - to explore markets in selected European countries – Poland, Germany, Austria and Slovakia.3. Elaborate the IP strategy4. Prepare the feasibility study including the business plan for Poland, Germany, Austria and Slovakia.
