L2M-Body-Safe Wearable Antenna Technology for Reliable Health Monitoring Devices

This project focuses on validating the real-world potential of a new wearable wireless sensing technology designed for safer and more reliable on-body communication. Many current wearable devices struggle with performance instability and safety issues due to strong interaction with the human body. This project explores an alternative design approach that minimizes unwanted radiation into the body while maintaining accurate sensing and communication capabilities.

Over a four-month period, the project will involve customer discovery, market research, and business model development to understand where this technology can create the most impact — particularly in healthcare monitoring, rehabilitation, and smart wearable applications. The goal is to bridge the gap between academic research and real-world application by assessing user needs, industry interest, and commercialization pathways.

This work supports the development of safer, more efficient wearable technologies and contributes to Canada’s innovation ecosystem by advancing research translation into practical solutions.
