The workshop provided insights into how health data can be captured unobtrusively, combined with vehicle-specific information, and leveraged to create novel medical value. In addition, the transfer potential of these technologies to clinical applications currently under investigation was discussed.\n<\/p>\n\n<p>\nThe unit also showcased the VI-Screen PRO project demonstrator, an AI-based, contactless screening system for early detection of virus-related respiratory infections. The demonstrator illustrated how advanced sensing and machine learning approaches can support preventive healthcare and future clinical applications.\n<\/p>\n\n<video style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" autoplay loop muted>\n  <source src=\"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/healthai_20260318.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\">\n  Your browser does not support the video tag\n<\/video>\n<p>\nCopyright Images: Health.AI\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 16 and 17 January 2026, members of the Systems Neuroscience &#038; Neurotechnology Unit participated in the &#8220;AI in Medicine&#8221; Symposium at Saarland University Hospital in Homburg, which brought together experts from research, clinical practice, and industry to discuss current<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2939","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2939","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2939"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2939\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2957,"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2939\/revisions\/2957"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2939"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2939"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.snnu.uni-saarland.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2939"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
