Stretchable transistors used in wearable devices enable in-sensor edge computing

Organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) are neuromorphic transistors made of carbon-based materials that combine both electronic and ionic charge carriers. These transistors could be particularly effective solutions for amplifying and switching electronic signals in devices designed to be placed on the human skin, such as smart watches, trackers that monitor physiological signals and other wearable technologies. In contrast with conventional neuromorphic transistors, OECTs could operate reliably in wet or humid environments, which would be highly advantageous for both medical and wearable devices. Despite their potential, most existing OECTs are based on stiff materials, which can reduce the comfort of wearables and thus hinder their large-scale deployment.

F) until we have a universal basic income, a large part of the workforce is in retail, and they all need jobs

G) I'm not fucking buying shoes online. I'm not buying bras online. Any clothing more complicated than a hoodie, I am going to the store to try it on

every time I hear someone say “we should just get rid of physical shops and have everything online” I get a bit angry because

a) physical shops are important for those who don’t have access to a computer/ internet/ ect

b) those “weird” and “niche” shops I love so much don’t have the same vibe online, they turn into just another website

c) I hate paying for shipping

Smart fiber computers woven into clothing could transform health monitoring and performance tracking

- By Nuadox Crew -

MIT researchers have developed an elastic fiber computer that can be seamlessly woven into clothing to monitor health conditions and physical activity in real-time.

Unlike traditional wearables, these fiber computers cover large areas of the body, allowing for more comprehensive physiological monitoring.

The fibers contain microdevices such as sensors, a microcontroller, memory, Bluetooth modules, and a battery.

In tests, garments with these fibers accurately recognized exercises with 70% accuracy when using a single fiber, but reached nearly 95% accuracy when multiple fibers communicated with each other.

The technology will undergo real-world testing during the U.S. Army and Navy’s Arctic mission, Musk Ox II, where it will monitor soldiers’ health in extreme conditions.

Researchers believe fiber computers could revolutionize health monitoring, safety, and performance enhancement, with potential applications in everyday clothing.

Advances in fiber-based wearable sensors with machine learning

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) in the past decade has greatly enhanced the ability of wearable devices to process complex data. Among them, machine learning—a major category of AI algorithms—and its important branch, deep learning, are the main thrust of this wave of AI. Machine learning eliminates the labor cost of manually extracting data features, and its deep learning branch has powerful insights into hidden features. Their large demand for data fits the massive information brought by this era of information explosion. A recent study summarizes all machine learning algorithms that have been used in conjunction with fiber sensors, divided into two categories: traditional machine learning algorithms and deep learning algorithms. Traditional machine learning algorithms include linear regression (LR), k nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), random forest, XGBoost, and K means clustering.

Research team develops wearable sensor patch with smartphone-based edge computing to detect arrhythmias, coughs, and falls

- By InnoNurse Staff -

A Japanese research team led by Professor Kuniharu Takei and Associate Professor Kohei Nakajima developed a flexible, multimodal wearable sensor patch that uses edge computing via a smartphone to detect health issues, such as arrhythmias, coughs, and falls.

The patch, adhering to the skin, monitors vital signs like ECG, respiration, skin temperature, and humidity. Initial tests on three volunteers showed its potential to detect changes under varying temperatures, potentially aiding in early detection of heat stress.

A smartphone app processes sensor data using machine learning, achieving an 80% prediction accuracy for specific symptoms. Although data training currently requires a computer, future simplifications could enable full processing on smartphones. This advance highlights a step forward in telemedicine and wearable diagnostics.
