Smart Suit With Textile Sensors For Health Monitoring

Highlights

The intellectual suit which is fitted with large-area textile sensors can detect temperature, ph levels, pressure and other indicators showing the health status of a person.
The suit is linked to a cellphone, a computer, or even to a doctor’s computer through wireless transmission.
Health monitoring at any place can now be made possible with the use of the suit.

A suit which can track changes in the body such as difference in temperature, pH levels, pressure and other indicators can help in easy health monitoring.

A group of Chinese scientists have developed the intellectual suit which is fitted with large-area textile sensors. These sensors can detect temperature, pH levels, pressure and other indicators showing the health status of a person.
