Flexible Skin-Worn ***** Monitors EEG, ECG, Sends Recorded Data via Wireless (VIDEO)
Flexible Skin-Worn ***** Monitors EEG, ECG, Sends Recorded Data via Wireless (VIDEO)
[IMG]http://cdn.medgadget.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/flex-*****.jpg[/IMG] Flexible electronics are being rapidly developed, led in a major part by researchers at John A. Rogers’ lab at the University of Illi**is, Urbana-Champaign. The team have in the past demonstrated custom made Flexible devices that can be stuck to the skin to provide continuous health monitoring, but the tech**logy required building the individual components from scratch. This was going to be a difficult challenge, since **t everything is easily made Flexible and as effective as original components. **w the same team, partnering with folks from **rthwestern University, have incorporated off-the-shelf chips into their Flexible electronic *****es to allow for high quality ECG and EEG monitoring. Since the ***** would have rigid parts on its surface, the team modified it using microfluidic techniques to contain a liquid and be extra Flexible and squishy. The rigid components stand on tiny posts that reach into the *****, like columns of a bridge over water. The wires connecting the chips with other parts of the ***** are Flexible in every direction, allowing the ***** to be worn almost anywhere on the body. The ***** is actually wirelessly powered, sending back a Data signal that can be picked and displayed up on an external device, like a smartphone. The team tested the ***** against comparable commercially available ECG and EEG devices and found that it “performed equally to conventional sensors, while being significantly more comfortable for patients,” according to the University of Illi**is.
