The Chronious Project Smart T-Shirt Keeps Tabs on Medical Conditions

— June 28, 2012 — Tech
The Chronious Project Smart T-Shirt is the perfect solution for those who are health conscious and want to keep a handle on their medical wellness—but hate going to the doctor for routine checkups.

While it is designed for those who have chronic and life-threatening diseases, the shirt can be altered to monitor specific other bodily functions. At its base level the tee keeps tabs on heart and respiratory activity using sensors that are fitted into the fabric.

However, the sensors have the ability to be altered in both placement and monitoring capabilities to allow the patient to do their own checkups from home.

The sensors relay all of the data collected to a smartphone application that then crunches the numbers into meaningful analysis, allowing the patient to avoid making numerous trips to their physician.

1. Smart Wearable Technology - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop customizable smart wearable devices for monitoring specific medical conditions.
2. Remote Health Monitoring - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create advanced sensors and apps that enable individuals to track their health at home and reduce the need for frequent medical checkups.
3. Data-driven Personalized Healthcare - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Build smartphone applications that analyze health data collected from wearable devices, providing individuals with personalized health insights.
Industry Implications
1. Wearable Technology - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with textile manufacturers to integrate sensors into clothing, creating smart wearable technology for monitoring health.
2. Healthcare - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Partner with healthcare providers to develop remote monitoring solutions and enhance patient engagement in managing their health conditions.
3. Mobile App Development - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create intuitive smartphone applications that transform health data into actionable insights, enabling individuals to proactively manage their well-being.
