Stardots is thrilled to announce another MedTech project and this time we are teaming up with two of the best scientists in their respective fields to deliver the next generation Deep-Brain Stimulation (DBS) techniques, useful in the treatment of e.g., Parkinson’s disease.

Together with research groups of neurologist PhD Dag Nyholm from Uppsala university hospital and professor of control engineering and director of automatic control Alexander Medvedev from Uppsala university, we are building a cloud-based, AI-driven, platform for improving the DBS treatment.

DBS is considered one of the best and reliable techniques for e.g., Parkinson treatment. Combining Stardots cloud, application and computation technology, with Uppsala university newly developed AI algorithms, and the experience and knowledge in neuro-science and neuro-surgery, the project will develop a system that will aid doctors in their optimization of DBS for patients. The system will further enhance the effects of the DBS-treatment using smart and self-learning algorithms, adjusting the DBS-parameters using various inputs and models in one easy and intuitive interface.

The project working title is “EKLIPS” and is partly funded by Vinnova – Sweden’s innovation agency. EKLIPS will be built in conjunction with our previous announces project: sPark. More information will follow on www.stardots.se/news or contact us on info@stardots.se.

We just released Evolved Horizon v. 1.20 for PC, and it is packed with new features and hardware support. Evolved Horizon now features support for the excellent Sparkfun HX711 Loadcell amplifier, updated the launcher GUI, database performance, analytical plot upgrades support for zoom, pan and data cursor, as well as a better utilization of the screen size. See the release notes for a complete list.

For new users: Download Evolved Horizon and get a license to start your data-driven insights. Exisiting users: just restart the application for an optional upgrade.

Please contact us at info@stardots.se if you have any questionts.

Stardots was recently invited to MathWorks HQ in Natick. MathWorks is a frontline company in technical computing, full of brilliant, open and hardworking people – dedicated to accelerating the pace of science and engineering. We are looking forward to working closely with MathWorks, to be able to deliver the best possible products for our customers and partners.

Stardots is glad to announce yet another project within health-care: sPark. sPark features an AI- and cloud-powered application designed to quantify the degree of Parkinson using various techniques. The end goal is to provide better treatments to patients. The research groups of Professor Alexander Medvedev and neurologist Dag Nyholm at Uppsala university and Stardots is co-developing the application; testing is scheduled at Uppsala University Hospital.

sPark is currently in beta-phase and we will keep you updated of the progress of the Project!

We are honored to be invited to give a talk at the MathWorks EXPO, explaining our approach to develop, sell and distribute data-analysis applications for the R&D. CEO finished by demonstrating Evolved Horizon on the Windows platform. Check out some photos below and download the presentation here.

 

Stardots are honored to be nominated for NyTekniks and Affärsvärldens 33-list – a list of the hottest Tech startups in Sweden! Previous companies on this list includes very successful ones, like Spotify.

See more info here (in Swedish).

Honored to be invited to the MATLAB EXPO 2018 and give a presentation about Stardots, our applications and how we collaborate with researchers and engineers. Free registration at http://www.matlabexpo.com/se/

 

The MS-research of one of our brilliant collaboration partners, associate professor Joachim Burman Akademiska sjukhuset, The Uppsala University Hospital, is featured in the news recently: http://unt.se/nyheter/uppsala/celltransplantation-bast-hjalp-for-ms-sjuka-4928282.aspx

Stardots is honored to work with the best in their respective field, and to deliver tools that helps the researcher to acquire and analyze data. Incidentally, Stardots and Joachim Burman are developing new methods of quantifying the degree of MS, more information and downloadable application will follow shortly!

 

Evolved Horizon just got better; v. 1.17 released today!!!

Main new features includes a low-, high-, and band-pass FIR filter, better database manager, and more visualization options.

See all additions and fixes in the release notes. Just restart the application to receive your upgrade!

 

 

 

Our PID users wanted a “Use filename as tag” feature. So we added it, and corrected some cosmetic bugs. Restart the application to snag PID 2.02 right now! 🙂
