The UltraSense project, funded by Horizon Europe, aims to revolutionize health monitoring with a stretchable multi-sensing platform. Addressing obesity in Europe, it introduces a wearable tool for body composition analysis and health monitoring, promoting sustainable and healthier lifestyles.
ULTRASENSE Concept

The UltraSense project introduces a groundbreaking stretchable multi-sensing platform designed as a wearable tool for enhanced body composition analysis, promoting a sustainable and healthier lifestyle. This innovative platform integrates smart features and advanced stretchable materials, enabling the efficient synergy of three sensor compartments utilizing different technologies:
- Ultrasound Compartment: Provides precise information about body composition and tissue thickness.
- Bioimpedance Compartment: Offers fast and reliable measurements of fat, water, and muscle percentages.
- G-FET Biosensor Compartment: Retrieves biomarkers through sweat with attomolar sensitivity in a miniature footprint.
The wearable device will be validated in two key use cases:
- Impact of Sport on a Healthier Lifestyle: Monitors the effect of using the wearable device on exercise compliance and the corresponding health benefits.
- Early Detection and Continuous Monitoring of Metabolic Syndrome: Provides valuable information for personalized clinical management and health alerts for urgent medical treatment.
This comprehensive approach aims to foster a healthier lifestyle through advanced technology and continuous health monitoring.
