“Sweat sensor” tracks physiological changes from moment to moment
2016-17 Bakar Fellow Prof. Ali Javey is profiled in a Berkeley Research article titled “Physiological Changes Tracked Moment to Moment,” in which he discusses his research into a network of sensors that can be embedded into a sweatband to monitor moment-by-moment changes in electrolytes and metabolites. Prof. Javey is refining the sensor fabrication process to make it more commercially practical for fitness training, athletics, health diagnostics and even large-scale population studies.
