Wearable sweat monitor uses machine learning to protect workers from dehydration

Connection Hydration is worn on the bicep and contains microchannels and a sensing module that vibrates once they fill with sweat to alert the wearer to rehydrate. Credit: Epicore Biosystems A device for monitoring sweat and hydration based on a rigorous study from the University of Massachusetts Amherst is commercially available for the first time and ready to help protect “industrial athletes” from dehydration and its role in workplace accidents. Researchers at UMass Amherst partnered with Epicore Biosystems, a digital health company based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to validate Connected Hydration, Read More
