US Military Funded Scientists To Develop "Life Saving" Male Underwear

Core tip: According to the comprehensive report of the World Daily, Joseph, professor of nanotechnology at the University of California, San Diego, USA. The team led by Joseph Wang has developed an intelligent fabric that can be used to make comfortable, durable and even fashionable men's underwear, and may also have a life saving effect.

According to the comprehensive report of the World Daily, Joseph, professor of nanotechnology at the University of California, San Diego, USA. The team led by Joseph Wang has developed an intelligent fabric that can be used to make comfortable, durable and even fashionable men's underwear, and may also have a life saving effect.

The report cited Reuters news that the new fabric uses similar traditional screen printing technology to spray ink attached with carbon electrodes onto the belt of underwear, so that the electronic life sensor can cling to the skin at any time to measure blood pressure, heartbeat and other signs of life.

This technology opens a new boundary for the development of intelligent fabrics, and can also help transfer the main body of health care from hospital treatment to home care.

This plan is funded by the US military, and the US military may be the first to obtain such life saving underwear.

Professor Wang said: "This plan involves monitoring the wounded soldiers in the battlefield, hoping to develop the smallest invasive sensor to determine the location and form of the injury." The biosensors used to detect the injury can finally command the release of drugs to alleviate pain and even treat the wound. However, the application of this technology goes far beyond military purposes.

According to the report, Professor Wang said that the new technology may be used to match the trend of personalized medical care, such as remote monitoring of the elderly at home, including monitoring of various biomedical markers such as the heart, to warn of possible stroke, diabetes and other physiological changes.

The biosensors, which are reliable and can be worn on the body, can also provide valuable information on the condition of athletes, and even measure the alcohol content in the blood.

However, Professor Wang said that it would take some time to provide these smart underpants to soldiers in the field, because more research is needed to ensure that these monitoring systems are robust enough to cope with the daily activities of the parties.
