AI Powered Flexible Throat Sensor to Track COVID-19

• Researchers at Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have developed a novel wearable device and are also creating a set of data algorithms specifically designed to identify early signs and symptoms related to COVID-19 and to screen patients as the illness advances. The device can be worn 24x7 and produces a continuous stream of data. It uses artificial intelligence to reveal subtle, yet potentially life-saving, insights. It continuously measures and interprets coughing and respiratory activity in ways that are not possible with conventional monitoring systems.
• The devices are presently being used in a study at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab by COVID-19 patients and the healthcare workers treating them.
