Imagine a smart shirt that doesn't just track your heart rate, but actually 'tastes' your sweat to check for stress or fatigue. It uses ultra-thin materials and tiny chips to sense chemicals in your body and powers itself using your own body heat or movement. This data is then processed by a built-in brain that tells you exactly how to adjust your training or health routine in real-time.
Current health wearables rely on generic data and frequent charging, failing to track critical biochemical markers like cortisol or lactate in real-time. This limits their use in professional sports and critical medical post-operative monitoring.
Lab-tested biosensors using graphene oxide, smart textile platforms for ECG/EMG/SpO2, and energy harvesting prototypes (TEG, PZT, RF).
If you are a care provider dealing with high readmission rates—this project developed biosensors for post-operative monitoring that track C-reactive protein and cortisol. This allows for continuous patient supervision without requiring hospital stays.
If you are a brand dealing with generic fitness trackers—this project developed smart textiles with embedded sensors for lactate and sweat analysis. This provides amateur and pro athletes with precise biochemical data to optimize training.
If you are a service provider dealing with the difficulty of monitoring seniors at home—this project developed edge-based AI modules and biosensing devices. This enables autonomous health tracking and alerts for remote assisted living scenarios.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost-per-unit information is not provided.
The project uses established CMOS technology layers, which are the industry standard for mass-producing semiconductors, suggesting a path toward industrial scalability.
Based on available project data, specific licensing terms are not mentioned, though the project involves 23 industry partners who likely share in the IP development.
The project developed energy harvesting prototypes using TEG, PZT, and RF, along with supercapacitors for energy storage to extend battery life.
The project period runs from 2024-05-01 to 2027-04-30, indicating the development phase is ongoing.
The project is highly market-oriented, featuring a strong industry presence with 23 companies out of 35 total partners (a 66% industry ratio). The heavy involvement of 19 SMEs suggests a focus on agile commercialization and specialized technology niches.
