: This study presents the development of an ultraviolet-C (UVC)-enabled smart bandage embedded with a temperature sensor, designed for the treatment and management of chronic wounds. The bandage also incorporates an RGB light-emitting diode (LED) and a microcontroller. It features a high-precision temperature sensor with an accuracy of ± 0.1 ◦ C for real-time wound temperature monitoring. The UVC LED is employed to eliminate bacteria on wound surfaces, while an RGB LED, controlled by a microcontroller, signals the need for treatment and any changes in wound temperature. The strip is etched on a 25 µ m thick Kapton film to offer flexibility and comfort for wearing on the body and is seamlessly integrated into a cotton crepe bandage, forming a smart bandage. The embedded electronics are protected from wound exudates with a conformal polyurethane encapsulant film. Initial results indicate that the sensor achieves an accuracy of 97% in free space, inside a bandage, and on the human body.
:本研究介绍了一种嵌入温度传感器的紫外线-C（UVC）智能绷带的开发情况，该绷带专为治疗和管理慢性伤口而设计。该绷带还集成了一个 RGB 发光二极管（LED）和一个微控制器。它配备了一个高精度温度传感器，精确度为 ± 0.1 ◦ C，用于实时监测伤口温度。紫外线 LED 用于消除伤口表面的细菌，而由微控制器控制的 RGB LED 则发出需要治疗和伤口温度变化的信号。绷带蚀刻在 25 微米厚的 Kapton 薄膜上，佩戴灵活舒适，并与棉质绉绷带无缝集成，形成智能绷带。嵌入式电子元件由保形聚氨酯封装膜保护，不会受到伤口渗出物的影响。初步结果表明，该传感器在自由空间、绷带内和人体上的精确度均达到 97%。

: The integration of sensors into garments has paved the way for human activity recognition (AR), enabling users to engage in extended human motion recordings. The inherent fluidity of loose clothing allows it to mirror the wearer’s movements. From a statistical standpoint, clothing captures additional valuable insights beyond rigid body motions, improving AR. This work demonstrates how fabric’s orientation, layering and width contribute to the enhanced performance of AR with clothing in periodic motion. Experiments are reported in which a scotch yoke and a KUKA robot manipulator are used to induce the periodic motion of fabric cloth at different frequencies. These reveal that clothing-attached sensors exhibit higher frequency classification accuracy among sensors with an improvement of 27% for perpendicular-oriented fabric, 18% for triple-layered fabric, and 9% for large-width fabric, exceeding that seen with rigid attached sensors.
:将传感器集成到服装中为人类活动识别（AR）铺平了道路，使用户能够进行长时间的人体运动记录。宽松衣物固有的流动性使其能够反映穿着者的动作。从统计学的角度来看，除了刚体运动之外，衣物还能捕捉到更多有价值的信息，从而提高 AR 的性能。这项工作展示了织物的方向、分层和宽度如何在周期性运动中通过服装提高增强现实（AR）性能。在实验中，我们使用了苏格兰轭和库卡机器人操纵器，以不同的频率诱导织物的周期性运动。实验结果表明，附着在衣物上的传感器在各种传感器中表现出更高的频率分类准确性，垂直方向织物的分类准确性提高了 27%，三层织物的分类准确性提高了 18%，大宽度织物的分类准确性提高了 9%，超过了刚性附着传感器的分类准确性。
