IIT Jodhpur‘s Researchers have developed next-generation flexible semiconductor sensors designed for continuous health monitoring and the early detection of serious diseases, including cancer , Developed at the HESTECH (Hybrid Electronic Sensor Technologies) Lab led by Dr. Akshay Moudgil, these sensors represent a significant shift toward proactive, wearable healthcare..
Key Features and Technology
- The sensors are soft, intelligent, and flexible, allowing them to comfortably adhere to the human body for prolonged use without causing discomfort.
- They track vital physiological and biochemical signals such as heart rate, muscle activity, body temperature and skin pressure.
- A critical innovation is the use of Organic Electrochemical Transistors (OECTs), which excel at interacting with biological systems like saliva and sweat to identify early disease biomarkers.
- The technology enables the detection of cancer markers through simple biofluids, potentially replacing more invasive diagnostic methods
Applications Beyond Clinical Health :
- These sensors can be integrated into uniforms or wearable patches to monitor soldiers’ stress levels, cardiac load, dehydration, and muscle strain in real time.
- By enabling monitoring outside specialized medical settings, the device aims to bridge the gap in early diagnosis, ensuring timely intervention before conditions become critical..
