The New Achievement Of "Ningbo Intelligent Manufacturing": The First Smart Clothing For ECG Monitoring In China

A seemingly fashionable sports vest concealed mystery: wearing it can monitor your heart rate for 24 hours, and move freely without affecting daily life.

Zhang Minghua, vice mayor of Ningbo, spoke and congratulated.

Ten years to wear a sword. The first ECG monitoring system developed jointly by Dr. Zhang Hui of Zhejiang Textile and Fashion College and Ningbo AI Bang Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. Smart clothing Come out. December 26th, "wear the future" smart wearable equipment transformation of science and technology achievements ceremony and ECG monitoring smart clothing strategy signing and New product launch It's held in our city.

　　 The ten year research difficulty lies in cloth.

Zhang Hui said that after ten years of research, the research team has conquered the technical problems of flexible sensing technology, clothing style design, hardware technology algorithm and telemedicine, and obtained such research results. The key difficulty of this technology lies in the cloth of a special material.

"Fabric structure and material are very important. We used more than 20 kinds of materials to carry out repeated experiments, but the effect is not ideal. After nearly ten years of research, we finally developed a mixture of silver and silver chloride two kinds of materials. Zhang Hui said that this special cloth not only realizes the daily use function of wearable articles, but also realizes the monitoring function of human physiological signals. Experiments show that the cloth can be washed by washing machine.

Yesterday, at the demonstration site, the reporter saw that this "ECG monitoring smart clothing" appeared to be ordinary and fashionable. Sports vest The appearance is very similar to that of a tight elastic vest. However, a closer look can still reveal the abnormality: the black edge of the vest has two pieces of light yellow cloth about 5 centimeters long, which is the core part of the technology.

Zhang Hui said, "as we all know, the electrodes of traditional electrocardiogram are carried with glue. The disadvantage is that they can not stick to the human body for a long time. The skin will become red and itchy for a long time. And our electrocardiographic electrode is made on the cloth of this special material, close to the human body, and the effect is the same as that of the traditional electrocardiogram, but it will not cause human allergy.

In addition, the traditional heart rate examination, the inspector should lie on the bed, professional personnel to check, and this vest can be worn on 24 hours, and does not affect the physical activity, to monitor the heart rate at any time.

　　 More than ten patents have been applied in a wide range of applications.

Experts believe that the core function of this smart clothing is to have Wearable ECG monitoring system, which can realize low physiological load of human physiological signals and continuous dynamic monitoring for a long time, thereby playing a long-term monitoring and timely warning for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems, providing basis for implementing timely and effective medical measures, and reducing sudden danger.

Zhang Hui said, as long as you turn on Bluetooth, you can see the wearer's ECG on the phone, with heartbeat, frequency and other data. At the same time, multiple cell phone sharing data monitoring can be realized through APP, so that children can pay attention to their parents' cardiovascular health through modern technology, and early detection and early treatment. In addition, the concept of family circle has been built in APP. The heart health condition of wearers will be sent to hospitals or family phones on the basis of their settings. They can check the heart condition of family members wearing the product at any time.

"This technology can not only be applied to health care for the elderly, but also can be applied to other industries such as insurance, underground operations, public transport and ocean transportation." Experts say, "for example, our runners can wear and monitor at any time."

It is reported that the technology has more than ten patents in the field of flexible wearable devices, and has won the gold medal of the China Competition Award and the first prize in the Chinese competition. Wisdom made in Ningbo "

　　 Transformation of technology patents to achieve "three party relay"

ECG monitoring smart clothing has been highly praised by experts. Yesterday, the experts in the field of wearable devices of the Chinese Academy of Sciences attended the meeting. The ECG monitoring smart clothing realized a high degree of balance between the comfort and testability of wearable devices, realized the effective integration of humanized opening and intelligent links, realized the perfect unification of testing time flexibility and accuracy of test data, realized the customer experience of multi track data transmission and sharing and remote data analysis service, not only the first ECG monitoring in China. Smart clothes And the related technology reserves already have the extensible property of the wider wearable device application. He said: "I believe that the emergence of this product will also be a surprise and gospel for the Chinese clothing capital in Ningbo in the new technological era."

This technology has also been favored by enterprises. In the ceremony of technology patents transformation, AI Bang formally signed the agreement on transfer of scientific and technological achievements with the textile institute. The textile institute then awarded Dr. Zhang Hui and other research and development personnel with technology transfer funds, while Dr. Zhang Hui officially joined the AI Bang company with the technology award.

The seemingly short three transfer of funds has achieved the "three party relay" of technology transfer, technology award and technological entrepreneurship, and further promoted the enthusiasm of enterprises to participate in the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements. This transformation process describes the new mode and new thinking of scientific and technological ecological chain and industrial chain, and provides a new path and new case for the development of Ningbo's intelligent manufacturing industry.

Recently, AI Bang also signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Institute of computing, the Institute of materials and the three Institute of nanoscale.

It is reported that the smart clothing of "inch grass heart" ECG monitoring will be officially launched in the first quarter of 2017, and will cooperate with the relevant medical institutions to launch a series of service packages surrounding heart health.
