Projects iCalm (TM): Comfortable, Wearable, Wireless Bio-Sensing
We are developing a tiny wearable wireless sensor platform that allows comfortable, long-term sensing of physiological information coupled with low-cost connectivity to consumer devices including mobile phones and the XO laptop. This platform has many applications, including health monitoring for outpatients or the elderly, communication of affective information for people who are non-speaking or otherwise interested in sharing this information, education for individuals who want to learn about their own internal physiological changes during daily life, and customer experience data gathering in mobile situations.
