Covid-19: high-tech prevention with public screening from Capsula

An innovative platform in our fight against Covid-19.

Capsula is a phygital health pod that will be developed within the European project INNO4COV-19. Capsula will screen public health by measuring and analysing a series of parameters, including lifestyle and underlying health conditions. The health pod uses an open and scalable cloud-based platform. A digital totem version will measure vital signs linked to Covid-19 (temperature, heart rate and respiratory rate).

The idea is to place the totem in pharmacies, surgeries, hospitals and in places with a heavy footfall to develop a network of convenient and accessible points and so help to identify intervention strategies for early detection and management of Covid-19, as well as gathering useful data for epidemiological analyses.

INNO4COV-19 is funded under Horizon 2020.

Fondazione Politecnico di Milano is a partner in the initiative
