What if wearable electronics could monitor your health and detect diseases even before symptoms appear?
It’s free, every week, in your inbox.
Thats why the team turned to polymers, which have the ability to stretch and bend.
They then assembled them into a rig that allows the AI-based analysis of health data.
The chip called a neuromorphic computing chip doesnt work like a typical computer.
Then, they tested it on new ECGs.
The chip could accurately classify the heartbeats whether it was stretched or bent.
Eventually, it could be used to send patients or clinicians alerts, or to automatically tweak medications.
While this sounds like a fascinating use ofAI, getting the technology there isnt the only obstacle.
it’s possible for you to find the full research paperhere.
