This work focuses on the design and development of Closed-loop Medical Wearables and Implants for the Internet of Bodies (IoB). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Center for Internet of Bodies<\/a>: Center for IoB is a multi-university center that focuses on the research on sensing, analytics, communication, actuation, powering and harvesting around the human body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our vision for IoB is Explained in this Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering<\/a> (2023 Impact Factor: 11.324) Article, where the challenges and opportunities in this research area are articulated, in terms of sensing, processing, communication, powering and security of IoB nodes. The specific use-cases of Human-Body Communication (HBC) are also explained for IoB, as a differentiating factor from Wireless Body-Area Network (WBAN).<\/p>\n\n\n\n More details on IoB can be found in this infographic<\/a> and this blog post<\/a>. Bioelectronic sensor nodes (which can be either wearable or implantable) can harness the power of distributed internet of bodies to perform closed-loop tasks such as neuromodulation. We explore fundamental challenges and limits of various energy harvesting, sensing and communication techniques that are suitable for IoB platforms. In-sensor analysis powered by efficient computing methods as well as Custom modulation techniques are also being explored.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"Link](\"https:\/\/faculty.eng.ufl.edu\/chatterjee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/717\/2023\/05\/AR-Bio-e1685543639695.jpg\")
