This was a dynamic project where the team at Electrozyme (now Boilinq Inc.) developed a skin applied biosensor that measures electrolyte and metabolite content in sweat. It was a transformation from an academic project into a substantially validated proof-of-concept that required multiple iterations of prototype and validation.
I provided significant contributions to the rapid-prototyping of mechanical elements of a wrist-watch, with special consideration for the unique design challenge of avoiding moisture ingress into the enclosure while also simultaneously trying to measure sweat with a disposable screen-printed sensor. I also contributed to the execution of a significant validation study that saw over 100 individuals recruited for fitness testing to validate sensor accuracy and train algorithms developed by our biosensor scientists.
