Last year's winners


Out of numerous applicants, several teams qualify to take part at the final event of the idea and start-up competition and have the chance to present their project idea in front of the BearingPoint Jury. Three teams, that have especially innovative ideas, are then awarded with attractive prizes.

 

1. Prize: Team EyeScan, Germany
(8,000 Euro and 1 year consulting offered by BearingPoint)

The team EyeScan develops an App, which uses the front camera of a smartphone to track the gaze and movement of the eyes and enables the navigation of the smartphone via gesture- patterns. It enables users with severe handicaps or cerebral disturbances affecting motoric capabilities (in Germany 2.5 Million people) to navigate their smartphones. 

  
 
  2. Prize: Team Sensoc, Switzerland (3,000 Euro)
Sensoc develops washable smart socks, which can measure the pressure on the soles via conducting fibre, thereby allowing to analyze and track e.g. gait and pronation/supination. The socks deliver data for doctors, patients and rehabilitation centers via an integrated Bluetooth chip to smartphones and tablets. 
 
3. Prize: Team lumind, Germany (1,000 Euro)
Lumind is a personalized assistance system for diabetics and their relatives. The app is connected to a glucometer and shows statistics on the blood glucose levels. In addition, a separate device indicates via different light colors whether the blood glucose level deviates from the normal level.
