Such systems will meet both the requirements of the modern world for: Health, well-being and comfort, data and individual security, the increased demand for research into alternative prevention tools to exposure to harmful radiation as MRI, X-ray, etc. It is in this context that innovations focus on the development of adapted, miniaturized, autonomous and connected prevention and diagnostic systems.
Topics: Nowadays smart devices drive aspects of our lives. Some of them will even think for us. In all technological sectors, researchers focus on the design or optimization of operations with a view to generating a new model of interaction between the various actors in society involved in the fields of health, comfort and safety. On the social level, and far from replacing the role of professionals, systems with embedded electronics strengthen the links between scientists, patients and caregivers. This practice of “continuous monitoring” reassures and involves individuals who become actors in their health. From a technological point of view, the study of interactions between sensors and living organisms goes well beyond biological and health impact studies. The continuous character of the measurement of information is often difficult to obtain and only a few constraining intrusive devices (e.g. wired probes) allow continuous monitoring of the physiological and/or pathophysiological properties of a person. Practices conditioned by morphology and/or age often impose a state of stress linked to the need to prepare the act for a stay in a medical center. These numerous technological and experimental challenges are at the origin of potential innovations in the fields that researchers are currently studying.
