The three founders Massimo Sartori, Vittorio Caggiano and Vikash Kumar explain how they came up with the MyoChallenge: a global competition focused on getting a better understanding of human movement by using neural networks.
In this podcast hosts Anic van Damme and Steven van Roon explore the founders’ vision of building digital brains. This competition is showcasing the fusion of AI, digital twins and robotics to push the boundaries of neuro-mechanics and healthcare technology.
The experts explain that by putting research in a challenge is we can accelerate healthcare innovation. Professor Massimo Sartori emphasizes the platform’s potential in rehabilitation and improving lives.
You hear about out the structure of the MyoChallenge and why this is a magnet for innovation as each year more people participate. The policies that come out as winners of the MyoChallenge are added to the MyoSuite: an open-source platform combining AI with digital twins for simulating and optimizing interventions.
