Researchers from the National University of Singapore and A*STAR’s Institute of Materials Research and Engineering have developed an AI-powered sensor patch for monitoring wound recovery.
WHAT IT DOES
Called PETAL (Paper-like Battery-free In situ AI-enabled Multiplexed), the patch comprises five colourimetric sensors in a fluidic panel patterned after a five-petal pinwheel flower. Each of the...
In Singapore, a new smart wearable sensor can assess chronic wounds in real-time and wirelessly via a mobile app.
The technology was developed by a research team from the National University of Singapore's (NUS) Department of Biomedical Engineering and the Institute for Health Innovation and Technology (iHealthtech), together with their clinical partners from Singapore General Hospital. The...
A team of researchers from Tufts University, Harvard Medical School, and Purdue University, have presented academia’s latest take on the smart bandage. Recently described in the journal Small and so far tested only in vitro, the novel wound dressing is flexible, monitors the wearer’s wound in real time, and can administer a drug either on demand or in accordance to individual treatment protocols...
