Projects in Demonstrator Lab

Since 2017, many students and researchers have successfully used Demonstrator Lab to develop their ideas to maturity. This has led to the establishment of new companies offering new products and services. We present you an overview of the current participating projects below.

Universities
AMC UvA VU

MedAI

AI-powered triage application. Crafting an AI-powered triage application designed to revolutionize initial patient assessments in healthcare. By harnessing the capabilities of advanced artificial intelligence, our project aims to mitigate excessive wait times and streamline the diagnostic process, enabling doctors and nurses to prioritize care with unprecedented efficiency. Our application leverages OpenAI’s sophisticated language models to […]

My Energy

Products for Daily Life energy. Human bodies need energy in more precise and healthy ways in the current VUCA World. Most of the products available in the market are missing some key needs which will be addressed by this project

Nano Hybrids

Nano Hybrids aims at solving the synthesis of hybrid core-shell nanoparticles to unlock their potential. After more than 30 years of research, the potential of nanoparticles for applications with high technological and societal impact is widely agreed upon. But, production methods remain a bottleneck for their wide deployment into broader markets. Nano Hybrids is developing […]

Optical DOSY

An optical probe that characterizes molecular structure and size We have designed and are currently optimizing an optical liquid sample cell that simultaneously measures the size and IR/UV/Raman spectrum of molecules/particles in solution: Optical Diffusion-Ordered SpectroscopY. In the case of mixed samples, the optical spectra of the different components are cleanly separated by size. This […]

Postdator

Revolutionizing athlete safety with cutting-edge sport boots. Postdator is focused on pioneering in the sports footwear market by developing an innovative Sports boot designed to enhance athlete safety and performance. We focuse on integrating advanced materials into footwear, addressing the critical need for impact resistance and support during high-intensity activities. Our team, passionate about sports […]

PreActive

The health solution for home and office workers As home-based work becomes part of the new normal, people will be more exposed to work-related injury risk factors – namely physical inactivity and poor workstation setups. If left unmanaged, the resultant rise in work-related injuries could be devastating for both companies and individuals. PreActive challenges these […]

Pulse Racing

Wij zijn PULSE Racing, een van de dreamteams van de VU, en zetten ons in om functionele elektrostimulatie (FES) voor mensen met een dwarslaesie verder door te ontwikkelen. Met behulp van FES kunnen ook deze patiënten hun beenspieren blijven gebruiken. En dat biedt voordelen voor zowel hun mentale- als fysieke gezondheid.

PULSE Sport

Athlete Health & Performance Monitoring. PULSE redefines Athlete Health and Performance Management through advanced sensors and AI technology. Our sensors and sports psychology-based app monitor Mental Health, Physical Health and Team Environment, providing Athletes and Sports Organizations with personalized recommendations to improve performance, decrease injuries, nurture athlete development and strengthen team dynamics. Why Demonstrator Lab? […]

ReadLer

AI application for tailored feedback on how to improve speech. ReadLer is an AI-powered digital assistant focused on children with language and speech disabilities. The application gives detailed feedback on how to improve speech and pronunciation. It can be used as both complementary and independently from language therapy. The ReadLer AI application will give tailored […]

Respira

Breath sensors for pre-symptomatic disease detection Over the past few years, traffic incidents caused by drivers that are under the influence of laughing gas have increased more than ten-fold. Unlike for alcohol and drugs, there is currently no device available that can prove a driver was under the influence of laughing gas. We are developing […]
