Project description
Novelty smart and adjustable medical textiles – A new paradigm
Promising technologies of printable sensors and wearable electrodes are enabling life-saving monitoring of electrophysiological data from the organism and the provision of electrostimulation. They are also raising expectations for even more effective, safer and user-friendly solutions for medical use and healthy lifestyle. Working in this direction, the EU-funded WEARPLEX project will bring revolutionary advances from the integration of printable electronics with flexible and wearable textile-based biomedical electrodes. The multidisciplinary research goal is to enable manufacturing of stretchable textile-based multi-pad electrodes with integrated logic circuits for arbitrary adjustable, flexible configuration of pad positioning. A new paradigm will be created with a custom-made smart electrode allowing compatibility with any system.
