- 9. 1) Form factor 2) Energy supply and power delivery 4) Data handling, storage, and information extraction 3) Sensing modality and signal integrity Wearable systems often require custom forms to fit to the human body. Systems must have properties of conformability, flexibility, and long-term stability when placed in contact with the human body or embedded within clothing fabric. Example hard challenges are unobtrusive packaging or embedding within fibers, development of specialized materials, interface reliability, and durability. The useable lifetime of wearable systems depends on persistent energy supply and autonomous operation in a wireless environment. Ideally one would like autonomous operation over the projected lifetime of the wearable system without the need to change batteries or performing electrical recharging. Low-power or no-power sensing approaches and energy harvesting are therefore of special interest in this programme. Robust sensing modalities and platforms that can detect physical and molecular markers in bodily fluids at low concentrations are needed to extract relevant physiologic data non-invasively. Sensor drift over time, integrity of physical contact with human body, and human-wearable interfaces are significant long known challenges. Approaches that ensure placement and contact reliability or can operate at a standoff distance are of interest. Eventual wearable systems are envisioned to massively collect, process, and transmit information based on current multiple physiological and biochemical parameters as well as historical information. It is envisioned that next generation wearable systems must supply more that than just data to be subsequently processed offline but instead must be capable of developing onboard intelligence with capabilities that might eventually provide useful feedback to the human or autonomous interaction with the body.

Problem Current wearable sensors and electronics (systems) are limited by materials issues, Improper fit and placement, power, signal integrity, durability, and limited ability to acquire, store, and process multiple data. Wearable systems must meet all these challenges to be accepted in consumer and industrial applications.

Editor's Notes
- Good morning and welcome to the A*STAR Proposers’ Day for NGW. Just a little over 1 year ago A*STAR SERC introduced a new concept called a Proposers’ Day to announce new larger-scale longer-term thematic programs. The concept of a Proposers’ Day is modeled after a process used by DARPA to ensure targeted outcomes in eventual research proposals to be submitted by the proposers community. The Proposers’ Day begins the process of soliciting new research ideas, shaping a subsequent Call for Proposals, and ensuring impact which for A*STAR means eventual economic value capture for Singapore. I’m Dennis Polla and serve as the Director for Special Programmes at A*STAR. I am here to describe our interest in a possible NGW programme.
- The purpose of the Proposers’ Day is to communicate A*STAR’s interests to potential research performers. We do not want to tell you what to propose – we want your own ideas We do have some areas of interest for our programme which might not be completely unique to A*STAR or to the Singapore research landscape We are foremost concerned about carrying out research in Singapore that may have eventual economic impact. Of course, we want to do excellent science but economic impact for Singapore is of primary importance.
- There is no shortage of headlines on wearable sensors and electronics: - A contact lens that measures glucose - Electronic tattoos - A headband that can read brain waves - Wearable monitors of body data and activity including Sleep Heart rate Breathing Temperature Galvanic skin response Electrocardiogram (ECG) Today’s meeting is not intended to comprehensively review the commercial field or the results of the scientific community. The purpose instead is to address the bottleneck research issues holding back further commercialization in many applications particularly in the three most widely recognized opportunity areas: Sports Health and Fitness Visualization
- Sports and fitness activity monitoring are areas of immediate commercialization where there are few or no regulatory issues and strong markets for individuals willing to pay for new capabilities that enhance their recreational experiences.
- Similarly, health and wellness monitoring are important to many who want to improve their health or want the ensure they are getting enough exercise. Physiological monitoring of the heart and body activity are perhaps the most prevalent wearables to date with popular products such as Fitbit and Apply Watch. Biochemical monitoring of human activity is just starting to become feasible with the recent demonstration of sweat monitoring and the monitoring of its constituents including metabolites. The future longer term collection and monitoring of diverse physiological and biochemical signals, or course, points the way to the identification and monitoring of human health biomarkers, associated risk for disease, and perhaps even disease presence and progression.
- Wearable visualization aids represents a third opportunity area with capabilities to enable: - Enhanced visualization - Hands-free operation - Multiple information sets and overlays - Interface to other electronic devices The example shown is the infamous Google Glasses. With respect to consumer applications, it exposes multiple issues, including consumers don’t want it.

Warm – fogs up 2) Continuous operation implies short battery lifetime 3) Discomfort (burning would be a liability) 4) Privacy – surreptitious picture taking; erroneous x-ray imaging capability 5) High price

- This is the most important slide. DARPA Boot Strike. Soldiers take 10-20 kg of gear into the field that is mostly just batteries.
- Great research is taking place throughout the world. But the scientific community has not solved everything. I do not want to throw stones as excellent research emerges but take it for what it is and look to where the next improvements are. Organic electronics – low performance
- Ali Jave Can we help him with form factor?
- John Rogers – difficult to quantitate
- Appears to have solved the form factor problem but does it do anything useful?
- [Just state the text]
- To get there, we don’t want to build capability only. We want to solve hard challenges. Let me give some examples … [Click]
- We want to develop great proposals with you.
