Smart Shirt


The Sensatex Solution utilizes a groundbreaking electro-optical textile, the Wearable Motherboard Smart Shirt, to seamlessly incorporate sensory capabilities with radio and computing devices, representing a highly effective and unobtrusive means of integrating broad-based sensors with the human body.

By supporting voice and data communications from multiple sensory locations through one wireless backbone, the Sensatex Solution provides an extremely versatile framework for a host of biomedical monitoring applications. The Smart Shirt eliminates the need for loose wires and discomfort experienced by many current patient monitoring devices, while also reducing the false alarm rates associated with their use. Its dependable and unobtrusive monitoring environment remains virtually transparent to the patient, while improving communications with remote monitoring locations, maintaining quality of patient care, and reducing healthcare costs.
