The Health & Inclusive Design squad facilitates the learning of design skills and research methods to students and future designers in shaping technologies that contribute to the health and well-being of those in need of care or support. We strive towards an inclusive and caring society in which design and technology contribute to the quality of life and empower people in their abilities, their diversity, and their social environments.
The Health & Inclusive Design squad is part of the TU/e Industrial Design educational program and has longstanding partnerships with multiple clinical partners, care organizations, and business partners.
The Health & Inclusive Design squad focuses on applying state-of-the-art technology to health-related challenges in formal care contexts and in people's homes. HID addresses challenges in uncovering the lived experiences of vulnerable users, designing for behavioral change, balancing personalization and feasibility in health interventions, and dealing with stakeholders in complex healthcare systems.
HID projects run from conceptual designs to re-designing market-ready products in an iterative design process. These products and services focus on providing personalized care and tailored support to empower vulnerable users, rather than merely supporting existing care practices.
Examples of state-of-the-art technologies are social robots to engage with people with dementia, chatbots to support the dietary intake of at-risk young generations, wearables to support rehabilitation, machine learning to customize healthcare services and processes, or new methods and tools to improve healthcare in multi-disciplinary social settings.
