(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) A group of Chinese scientists have developed an intellectual suit which are fitted with large-area textile sensors that can detect temperature, ph levels, pressure and other indicators showing the health status of a person.
The suit will help monitor person's health anytime and anywhere, said Wang Zhonglin, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who introduced the invention at the third International Conference on Nanoenergy and Nanosystems in Beijing.
This year's event focused on topics such as nanogenerators, self-powered sensors and systems, piezotronics, piezophototronics, energy storage and self-charging power systems. Over 700 scientists from 30 countries attended the meet.
Wang also mentioned "nano tattoos". These stickers on the arm, which can be shaped as a pattern much like a tattoo, will be able to administer drugs into a patient's veins, providing a private and painless way of injection for diabetics.
"Scientists have made prototypes of all these gadgets at the institute's technopark. They are expected to hit the market in two to three years," said Wang.
