SERB SPONSORED ONE WEEK HIGH-END WORKSHOP ON MATERIALS ENGINEERING IN WEARABLE DEVICES

SMart and Innovative Laboratory for Energy devices and Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing, Kancheepuram, Chennai, India. Jointly Organizing SERB sponsored one-week high-end workshop on materials engineering in wearable devices, from July 28 – August 04, 2022. The program will be in the Physical mode.

About the Program

Wearables are devices that can be worn as accessories, embedded in the apparel, or implanted in the body. Wearable technology has invaded our day-to-day lives owing to its miniaturization. They provide great opportunities for clinical research, early disease prediction, and healthcare management. Micro- and nanomaterials play a significant role in the development of wearable devices. Most research in this field relied on exploiting rigid electronics in the semiconductor industry. However, recent focus has shifted to wearable sensing platforms, utilizing materials ranging from fabrics to 3D printed flexible electronics. These advancements hold a promising potential solution to the longstanding trade-off between performance and fabrication costs for wearable devices. In view of this, a program on ‘Material Engineering in Wearable devices’ is expected to benefit the faculty and scholars from engineering and science institutions, and researchers from research labs, to broaden their knowledge and hands-on utilization of materials for wearable technology.
