About DARERL

DARERL develops virtual human models for early-stage medical device and wearable development.

DARERL originates from several years of research at the Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen, in medical imaging, biomechanical modelling, real-time simulation, and virtual human anatomy.

The company builds on ideas and technology matured through European research projects including RAINBOW and IRE. RAINBOW focused on rapid biomechanics simulation and patient-specific clinical design, while IRE advances intelligent robotic endoscopy through anatomical modelling, simulation, learning-based navigation, and clinical verification.

These projects involved leading academic, clinical, and industrial organisations, including the University of Copenhagen, CAMES, Ambu A/S, Inria, InSimo, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, University of Twente, University of Tübingen, Synopsys/Simpleware, 3Shape, GMV and others.

DARERL translates this research heritage into an industrial platform for product development teams. Our virtual human models are derived from volumetric clinical data and designed to represent anatomical variation across populations. This enables companies to evaluate fit, form factor, and device–tissue interaction earlier in the development process — before committing to expensive prototypes, cadaver studies, or late-stage testing.

Unlike generic simulation tools, DARERL is built around variation across anatomically realistic human models. Users can explore a design on one model, apply the same workflow across a broader population, and generate quantitative statistics that support better design decisions, clearer documentation, and earlier risk reduction.

Our mission is to help medical device and wearable companies move from assumptions to evidence earlier in development.
