Maker Faire Rome has always been one of my favorite shows. It brings makers, hobbyists and enthusiasts of all ages and genres together in one place. The ability to show the newest technology and the coolest STEM products is something that can’t be done to this caliber anywhere else. We at DigiKey are lucky to be a part of this great maker event.

The Sensipatch for learning from human body data
This wearable smart patch is part of a kit designed to facilitate the experimentation and accelerate the development of artificial intelligence-based health diagnostic devices, from wristwatches, clothing, bracelets, and neck-less, VR helmets to miniature smart rings. The sensor patch makes available an extensive set of physiological measurements. It is complemented by an SDK and the SLM-Studio multi-sensors data logging and AI framework, running on most PCs. A single SENSIPLUS analogue front-end chip performs all measurements, which assures coordinated and optimally timed data acquisition for sensor fusion. Multiple patches can be daisy-chained and operated concurrently to enable large-area body measurements.
