Live Demonstration: A Wearable Torso Shape Detection Belt for Lung Respiration Monitoring

A 32 channel wearable torso shape detection belt will be demonstrated. The belt is designed to measure the torso shape of a neonate and provide real-time boundary information to assist the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) system to produce high quality lung respiration images. The system is fully integrated on a flexible printed circuit board which is encapsulated in a silicon wearable cover. During the live demonstration, while EIT images are reconstructed, the boundary shape can be changed to improve the image.
