Developed tissue that transmits human biomedical data
Canadian researchers have created a “smart tissue” that can monitor and transmit biomedical information, including blood glucose and brain activity, wirelessly.
The material simultaneously performs the role of a sensor and an antenna. Clothing may be woven from wool or cotton, using fibers from copper, polymers, silver and glass. According to scientists, the signal quality in 2.4 GHz wireless networks is comparable to commercial antennas.

The material is able to monitor the level of glucose, heart rate, brain activity, as well as the coordinates of the owner in space. The clothes will withstand high tensile and flexural loads, will continue to work at 350 ° C, in bad weather and after cleaning with detergents. That is, such "smart" clothes can be easily washed in a typewriter.
Earlier this year, Cityzen Sciences announced the production of Smart Sensing clothing of its own technology. Sensors that measure such important parameters for an athlete as temperature, pulse, and sweating intensity are sewn into the cloth of clothing. The data is broadcast on the user's smartphone.
The developers planned to build a battery that will be charged during washing in a washing machine.
In Russia, at the Open Innovations Forum this year, they presented their own smart t-shirt . But it is not for sport, but for the elderly and for the patients of clinics - such clothes do not measure pulse, but do an electrocardiogram and transmit it in real time.
