Through its practice-based research, HU University of Applied Sciences Utrecht contributes to solutions for a wide range of societal issues. Issues submitted by our partners working in the field – at the regional, national and international level.
The Smart Systems for Healthy Living research group, led by professor Matthijs Smakman, works on smart technological innovations to maintain and improve human well-being. Using new smart technology systems such as sensor technology, social robotics and 3D printing, we conduct practice-based research into innovative solutions to current health problems in three lines of research.
The table below lists research projects that are hosted on GitHub. This is just a tip of the iceberg of what we do – visit our website for a more complete overview of research done at the Smart Systems for Healthy Living lab.
