A wearable device, a-Heal, designed by engineers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, aims to expedite the entire healing process. It uses a tiny camera and AI to detect the stage of healing and deliver treatment in the form of medication or an electric field. The system responds to the unique healing process of the patient, offering personalized treatment.
A-Heal works like an automated personalized physician. a-Heal uses a camera to image the wound, machine learning to provide a diagnosis and prescribe an optimal therapy, and bioelectronics to deliver the therapy on demand. The system learns like a trained professional and improves the treatment as each wound progresses to the healing phases and uses what it has learned to better heal future wounds.
