Japan launches ultra-low-cost health monitoring smart patch
Release date: 2016-12-01 The team at Osaka Prefecture University in Japan recently announced that they have produced a smart terminal that looks like a normal medical tape and can be attached to the skin to monitor health. Specific results were published on the American Science Journal Science Advances on November 24, 2016. Because the technology is very low cost, it can be used to make disposable items. Instead of using semiconductor technology that requires cutting and combining materials, the research team used a liquid that was made by fusing nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes in solution. A sensor capable of detecting physical activity is produced on the film by printing techniques. By providing an acceleration sensor, the sensitivity is greatly improved. In addition, developers have used this technology to create sensors that measure skin temperature, UV exposure, and heartbeat. This smart patch has a length of 10 cm, a width of 3 cm and a thickness of 1 cm. Developers are currently designing complementary wireless communication loops and batteries, and costly accessories are designed to be reusable for long periods of time. Wearable smart devices such as smart watches and smart bracelets are being accepted by more and more people. The biggest feature of this new technology is that it can be directly applied to the skin of the neck, wrist and other places. Developers said they will strive to control the cost of a single-use smart patch to be less than 100 yen per piece (about RMB 6).
