Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have successfully developed sheet-type sensor systems for monitoring functions of autonomic nervous system. This system consists of sheet-type electroencephalogram (EEG), electrocardiogram (ECG), electromyogram (EMG), and sweat sensors. For the realization of imperceptible electronic system, almost all the component has been manufactured on flexible and stretchable substrates, so that it can spread over arbitrary curved surfaces including human skins. With integrating the ultrafsoft gel electrodes, ultraflexible amplifier, Si-LSI platform consisting of wireless data-transmission module and analog-to-digital converter, Li-ion-based thin-film battery, and information engineering.The collaboration with medical doctors in Osaka University Medical Hospital, we have successful monitored the functions of autonomic nervous system using the developed systems, demonstrating the excellent feasibility of the newly-developed sheet-type system.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

自律神経の乱れに伴う疾患は極めて多く患者がいる。その一方で、自律神経の機能を定量的に計測できる技術は皆無であり、開発が期待されていた。本研究では、脳波、心電、体動、発汗を包括的に計測できるシート型センサの開発を行い、その有用性を医師とともに確認した。将来の家庭内でのヘルスケアや遠隔医療に資する取り組みである。
