Design wearable biosensors that track health in real time.
Wearable Biosensors for Continuous Health Monitoring teaches the technology behind the growing world of health wearables. You learn the sensing mechanisms these devices use — electrochemical, optical and physical — to measure everything from heart rate and motion to sweat glucose and biomarkers, and the flexible, skin-compatible materials that make them wearable. The course covers signal acquisition and processing, power and connectivity, and the accuracy and calibration challenges of sensing on a moving body. You finish able to reason about designing a wearable biosensor for a health-monitoring goal. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
