Introduction: Eye Tracking at the Heart of Digital Health Innovation
From April 9 to 11, 2024, SeeTrue Technologies participated in DMEA 2024—Europe’s largest and most influential trade fair for digital healthcare—held at Messe Berlin. With more than 700 exhibitors and over 16,000 healthcare professionals and decision-makers, DMEA offered the perfect setting for us to showcase how wearable eye-tracking technology can elevate diagnostics, patient monitoring, cognitive assessment, and usability design in healthcare environments.
Located in Hall 2.2, Stand F-102, the SeeTrue team presented a hands-on experience of our ultra-lightweight, privacy-conscious, and AI-ready eye tracking solutions—enabling medical professionals and digital health developers to understand patient behavior, measure gaze-based biomarkers, and build intuitive interfaces for diagnostics, rehabilitation, and assistive technology.
DMEA 2024: Where Health Meets Innovation
DMEA is not only a trade fair, but a stage for ideas. Its core themes in 2024 included:
- Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
- Digital Patient Interfaces
- Remote Monitoring and Home Care Solutions
- Medical Usability and Accessibility
- Cognitive and Behavioral Analytics
Each of these areas directly connects to SeeTrue’s product vision and mission: empowering digital health transformation through real-time, non-invasive eye tracking.
Presenting Our Eye Tracking Solutions for the Medical Sector
👁 ST ONE Light BT – Wearable Gaze Tracking for Research and Health Monitoring
The ST ONE Light BT is a Bluetooth-enabled, ultra-light wearable eye tracker that streams 100 FPS gaze data in real-time while consuming minimal power. It’s optimized for use cases such as:
- Cognitive fatigue tracking
- Visual attention profiling for neurological assessment
- Rehabilitation feedback in physiotherapy or stroke recovery
- Mobile UX testing in medical software environments
With built-in dynamic power-saving mode, ST ONE Light BT adapts to natural eye movements, maximizing operational life for long-duration health studies or daily monitoring.
🧠 ST AIR – Embedded Eye Tracking for Smart Medical Devices
Designed for AR/VR healthcare solutions, smart diagnostic glasses, and mobile clinics, the ST AIR module provides high-precision embedded gaze sensing. Key features include:
- IR-LED-based illumination with ultra-compact footprint
- On-device gaze vector estimation
- BLE and USB connectivity for flexible integration
- Low-latency, energy-efficient eye movement tracking
- Optimized for patient comfort and usability
ST AIR allows device manufacturers to bring eye-based inputs to head-mounted diagnostics, remote consultations, and rehabilitation platforms—turning human gaze into an actionable health metric.
Why Eye Tracking Matters in the Future of Healthcare
🔍 From Attention to Intention: Understanding the Human in the Data
In the healthcare sector, precision and personalization are everything. Traditional inputs—buttons, speech, and even physiological sensors—offer only a partial view of a patient’s cognitive and behavioral state.
Gaze data, on the other hand, provides a direct, continuous insight into attention, cognitive load, emotional engagement, and neural function. Applications include:
- Mental health screening via saccade and fixation metrics
- Cognitive decline detection (e.g., Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s)
- Post-operative cognitive monitoring
- Usability testing of EHR systems
- Assistive control for patients with motor impairments
SeeTrue Technologies is building a bridge between eye-based signal processing and clinical insight, enabling AI to work with the patient, not just around them.
🧪 SeeTrue Eye Tracking + AI = Health Insights at the Edge
AI was a dominant theme at DMEA 2024, and SeeTrue is at the forefront of integrating real-time vision intelligence into medical AI workflows.
Our devices are designed for edge processing—performing gaze estimation directly on-device. This approach supports:
- Real-time feedback loops for adaptive health interfaces
- Offline operation in clinical settings with limited connectivity
- Data privacy compliance (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA)
- Energy-efficient wearable deployments
By transmitting only lightweight gaze coordinates, our devices protect patient privacy, while enabling high-resolution behavioral tracking over extended periods.
DMEA 2024 Highlights: SeeTrue in Action
During the 3-day event, the SeeTrue booth attracted interest from:
- Digital health startups seeking cognitive analytics tools
- Hospitals and clinics exploring hands-free interfaces for surgery
- Rehabilitation researchers investigating visual feedback platforms
- Healthcare UX designers looking for objective interaction metrics
- Assistive tech innovators developing eye-controlled systems for ALS, stroke, and paralysis patients
We also engaged in exciting dialogues with providers of medical AR headsets, telemedicine platforms, and eye movement-based diagnostics—all of whom saw the value in SeeTrue’s compact, real-time, embedded gaze tracking.
Privacy and Sustainability – Built into Every Device
🔐 Privacy-First Design for Clinical Environments
Unlike camera-based systems that record video and require heavy backend processing, SeeTrue devices process data entirely on-device. This ensures:
- No sensitive image data is transmitted or stored
- Full compliance with health data regulations
- Seamless integration into secure clinical systems
- Reduced server load and infrastructure costs
🌱 Designed for Sustainability and Scalability
SeeTrue eye trackers operate with ultra-low power consumption, which contributes to:
- Longer device lifespans
- Smaller battery footprints
- Less electronic waste
- Easier integration into wearable, mobile platforms
This aligns with the industry-wide push for green medtech solutions that scale responsibly in hospitals, homes, and rural care environments.
Looking to the Future: SeeTrue and the Evolution of Health Technology
DMEA 2024 was not just a trade show—it was a platform to shape the future of healthcare. As hospitals evolve into intelligent care ecosystems, SeeTrue’s mission is to ensure that the human gaze remains at the center of the interface.
Whether helping a physician track focus during surgery, enabling a neurologist to assess saccadic latency, or empowering a stroke patient to control their environment through eye movement, our technology supports precision care—with compassion, simplicity, and accuracy.
