We are excited to announce VCare’s successful participation in InnoCarnival 2024, held at the Hong Kong Science Park from 26th October. The event, organized by the Innovation and Technology Commission, aims to promote a culture of innovation and technology (I&T) in Hong Kong. This year’s InnoCarnival brought together leading innovators, researchers, and startups to showcase the latest advancements in science and technology.

At our PolyU booth, we had the privilege of exhibiting some of the most innovative projects from the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering. One of the highlights was our Vcare Vision Training VR Device, which offers personalized vision correction training through immersive VR technology. The Vcare device uses patented microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) lens modules and training routines that help users achieve better vision correction outcomes. This project received significant attention due to its potential to improve vision correction for conditions like myopia and amblyopia.

Honored Visit from the Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry

We were honored to welcome the Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry, Professor Sun Dong, to our booth. During his visit, Professor Sun Dong engaged with our team and explored the innovative projects being displayed. His presence underscored the importance of fostering homegrown innovations and supporting young researchers and entrepreneurs in developing solutions that address global challenges.

Empowering the Next Generation of Innovators

Our booth was also supported by PolyVentures, a student-led initiative from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. This group of young innovators actively participated in the exhibition and received valuable feedback from industry experts and visitors. Their involvement in InnoCarnival 2024 highlights our commitment to nurturing the next generation of innovators and entrepreneurs.
