According to the World Health Organization, high blood pressure affects more than 1.3 billion people around the globe, yet ...

Scientists have developed a stretchable 3D "smart bandage" that can help wirelessly monitor signals, from respiration to eye movement, to heart and brain activity, as well as a robotic arm.

Now engineers at MIT {Massachusetts Institute of Technology] have developed pressure-sensing photonic fibers that they have woven into a typical compression bandage. As the bandage is stretched, the ...

The researchers stacked and connected laters of stretchable circuits on top of other circuits to build the electronic patch that keeps its functions while staying thin and small in size. The patch can ...

A stretchy, adhesive bandage that makes use of temperature sensors and LED lights could be the world's first "smart band-aid." The technology could also be useful for prosthetic and mobile health ...
