Entre sensores y sonrisas Hacia la innovación tecnológica y el aprendizaje en servicio para la protección pediátrica en crisis atónicas.
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article presents the progress of the project “Between Sensors and Smiles”, aimed at developing personalized cranial protection devices for children with atonic seizures. The proposal combines 3D printing technologies, the integration of biomedical sensors, and clinical validation at the Children’s Hospital in La Plata, within the framework of an interdisciplinary collaboration with the National Technological University, La Plata Regional Faculty, under the Science Teaching Research Group. The project seeks not only to impact child health by reducing the risk of traumatic brain injuries, but also to contribute to academic training by offering students meaningful service-learning experiences. This article describes the rationale, methodology, progress achieved, and future projection of the project, highlighting its innovative and transformative character.
