Nanomaterials that have been used for touchscreen sensors are being used to develop low-cost, flexible sensors in clothing that can detect when the wearer is ill or tired.
UK nanotech developer Peratech is working with the London College of Fashion to develop wearable electronics that use Peratech's QTC sensors, from flexible keyboards to a medical sensor based on smell. This is a three and a half year PhD research project funded by an EPSRC ICASE award to explore the needs base and applications for wearable technology bringing together the expertise of industry and academe in a highly creative way.
