About the project

The project will aim to develop new types of wearable sensors that can potentially used in a clinical setting. 

Through collaboration with  University Hospital Southampton, the project will investigate a variety of wearable technologies for healthcare. Examples include physiological parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, hydration level and temperature. the project will aim to develop a device that can measure multiple parameters at the same time and can be conveniently located on the body.
