TEXTO:
Japanese researchers have created a stretchy,
ultrathin electric “skin” that can read and display the
wearer’s heartbeat. Using built−∈ electrode sensors and
wireless communication, the breathable nanomesh
[5] sensor fits flush against the wearer’s skin and records
information (like the waveforms of an echocardiogram,
for example). It then sends the information it has
gathered directly to a smartphone, external storage
device, or even syncs with the cloud.
[10] As semiconductor technology has improved, so
too have applications for wearables that can track vital
signs and other health information on the wearer,
syncing it up with their smart devices ∈ real time. The
display created by the team of researchers ∈Japan is
[15] a 16 x 24 array of micro LEDs combined with elastic
wiring attached to a rubber sheet. Designed for flexibility,
it can stretch to 45 percent of its original length. “Our
skin display exhibits simple graphics with motion,”
Professor Someya said. “Because it is made from thin
[20] and soft materials, it can be deformed freely.”
In terms of what it can monitor, the skin display
isn’t wildly more advanced than existing technologies,
but its seamless nature and interconnectivity make it
extremely easy to use. Patients who need constant
[25] monitoring of vital signs could use the tech to make
sure the information is sent directly from the device to
their doctor, but ∈a way that’s noninvasive, convenient,
and reliable.
For patients with limited mobility, being able to have
[30] accurate, real-time, remote monitoring that keeps them
connected to those overseeing their care, all without
the stress of scheduling and getting to an appointment,
wearables can be life-changing. Or, at the very least, a
lot more comfortable.
