As technology continues to advance, wearable devices are growing faster and faster. The innovation of BeBop Sensors, which won the Frost & Sullivan 2015 North American New Product Innovation Award, was the development of a sensor-embedded fabric. Sensors embedded in this fabric measure strength, position, size, weight, shape recognition, capture motion, and the presence of people and objects.
The company's sensor products can be used not only in the wearable device industry but also in the automotive, manufacturing, sports, and healthcare industries. In the healthcare industry alone, the fabrics produced by the company have multiple uses. For example, it is used to make sheets on a hospital bed, and when the patient is lying on the sheets, the sheets provide physiological information about the patient. It can also be used on a chair to collect data and remind you to correct your sitting posture.
The embedded chip architecture technology was introduced last year and is supported by instrument inventor Keith McMIllen.
In addition, BeBop Sensors is just one of the companies that are currently affecting the future of wearable medical devices. There are still 5 here, let's take a brief look.
JUNE Bracelet
The company's wearable medical bracelet comes with an ultraviolet sensor that tracks and measures user exposure in the sun and sends relevant data to the corresponding iOS app. The application will inform the user of the intensity of the received UV radiation and, based on the data, make a judgment as to whether it is necessary to apply sunscreen, whether it is necessary to wear sunglasses, etc., and then give advice. In order to obtain accurate data to facilitate personalized recommendations, users need to fill out a questionnaire about physiological characteristics, including skin color, eye color and so on.
Motus Global
The sports biomechanics company developed a guard arm that reduces the risk of a stalk ligament strain in a basketball pitcher. This product is currently being evaluated to see if it is suitable for use in physical therapy.
The purpose of this arm guard for basketball players is that it has a 3D motion sensor that collects data such as arm speed, number of shots, and then sends the collected data to the app. The coach and team manager use the app. Can understand the player's data. These data collected from this arm guard user are able to reflect changes in the user's body, such as muscle degeneration.
This wearable device is also widely used by tennis players, football players and golfers. Now, TheMotus Global is developing another arm guard for the average consumer, which is expected to be available this year.
CarePredict
The health technology company produced a behavior monitoring device called "Tempo." Designed for the elderly, this watch-shaped wearable medical device helps them monitor daily activities and behavioral patterns and record these activities and patterns in the Rhythm Journal. After these activities and modes are recorded, once the real life changes, the relatives and friends of the elderly will receive a reminder.
According to CEO SaTIsh Movva, “This device provides a more accurate interpretation of health because it combines the data of daily activities with the location of activities.â€
Hexoskin
Hexoskin has developed a vest that monitors the wearer's health by recording heart rate, breathing rate and movements. This sensor-mounted vest has also been used in Canadian Olympic athletes, aerospace agencies and military organizations.
ZOLL Medical
The wearable medical device developed by ZOLL is called Life Vest, which is designed for patients with heart disease. It is estimated that there are almost 920,000 such patients.
According to the official website, the Life Vest wearable defibrillator is worn by patients who are at risk of cardiac arrest. It provides protection when the patient's condition changes and when the patient is at risk of cardiac arrest. It also gives doctors enough time to assess the risk of long-term arrhythmia and develop appropriate treatment options.
