Antennas & Propagation Society: "Remote Health Monitoring"
The College of New Jersey, Armstrong Hall, Room 136, 2000 Pennington Rd, Ewing, NJ, USThe PCJS IEEE Antennas & Propagation Society presents:
"Remote Health Monitoring through Flexible, Wearable, and Disposable Wireless Sensing Systems" - Professor Atim Shamim, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST)
Abstract:
With the advent of wearable devices and the Internet of Things (IoT), there is a growing demand for sensing systems that are not only compact and wireless, but also flexible enough to conform to the human body or mount on non-planar surfaces. This shift has fueled innovations in materials,manufacturing, and circuit design that enable sensors to bend, and integrate seamlessly into clothing, skin patches, or everyday objects. At the same time, there is an increasing requirement for these systems to be ultra–low cost—low enough to be disposable—while still delivering clinically meaningful data.This talk will explore recent advances in wearable and flexible sensors for remote health monitoring, in particular covering topics like additive manufacturing technologies such as inkjet and screen printing to realize these sensor systems. The ability to create links for various sensing materials and then print them on unconventional mediums such as plastics, papers, and textiles has opened up a plethora of new
sensing applications.In this talk, we present many examples, such as, a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) enabled skin temperature monitoring system, a smart bandage with detachable BLE wireless readout for chronic wounds monitoring, a wearable wireless ECG system, and a Lactate sensing system for fitness monitoring. The promising results of these designs indicate that the day when these low-cost sensors will be worn on a regular basis for remote health monitoring is not far off.
