Usability Challenges in Cutting-edge Medical Devices and Exoskeleton Robotics

As medical device and robotics technology mature and grow more capable they also become more complex, requiring focus on usability aspects from both a user experience (UX) design and regulatory perspective. These new applications, such as exoskeletons, demand a seamless interaction between the device and the user. That means designers and developers must improve utility while mitigating inherent risks.

This panel will explore how to approach UX design for medtech and how it should plug into a product development cycle leading to a 510(k) submission. We will share lessons learned from studying exoskeletons for military applications, and explain how they can be applied to medical/rehabilitative applications.

Here are some of the topics we’ll cover:

  • UX design principles for med devices
  • Recognizing UX requirements vs Product Requirements
  • Introduction to exoskeletons
  • Task analysis – matching use-cases to technology
  • Hazards analysis
  • Human Subjects Research

Speed and Agility of Innovation with Docker and Kubernetes

Docker and Kubernetes pave the way for running federated, scalable and redundant systems on the Cloud and on the Edge with the same technology. In this introductory webinar we will go over the history, fundamentals and usage of Docker and Kubernetes and present key takeaways for CTOs and developers. We'll also cover the key benefits of using this technology in both the development and deployment of Qt applications. 

We'll discuss:

  • Short history Docker and Kubernetes
  • Why are containers suddenly so popular?
  • The benefits of using Docker with Qt applications
  • Kubernetes for the Cloud and for the Edge
  • Moving to containers and Kubernetes: How and Why

ICS is hosting this webinar with our partner, Keitaro, an open-source company empowering businesses, governments and communities across the globe. Their goal is to provide best-in-class solutions and services by creatively using cutting-edge technology. Aside from working on commercial projects, Keitaro is a company dedicated to giving back to the open-source community. As such, they continuously invest their knowledge, time and resources.
