Neonatology Lab
The laboratory aims to develop innovative solutions in the field of ICT technologies and to realize clinical models, devices and systems in the field of biorobotics
The Neonatology laboratory for the development of robotic systems and ICT, is a collaboration between The BioRobotics Institute of Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna and Azienda Ospedaliera Pisana (AOUP).
The aim of the Joint Lab are: i) development of research for innovative solutions in the field of ICT; ii) development of clinical models, devices and systems in the field of bio-robotics, robotics in functional areas (respiratory, neurological, etc.).
