Reflections on Ten Years of ASSIST
Ten years ago, the ASSIST team set out to create disruptive, always-on wearable devices that would enable continuous monitoring for chronic disease management. We achieved this through unique co-engineering of energy harvesting, low-power systems-on-chip, low-power sensing and integration on flexible platforms such as textiles. ASSIST built these systems to meet the requirements of several key chronic health concerns such as asthma, cardiac disease, diabetes, and wound monitoring.
