These tactile sensors combine machine learning with measurement technology. This enables them to recognize the temperature, moisture levels, and even the type of solution used and then convert this information into digital values. Park Young-ho, Head of R&I Center at Amorepacific said:
“Now, we are able to provide verified and reliable results by comparing the cool and warm sensations of cosmetics for evaluation. We will continue to further secure data using advanced technology and bring about innovations through research.”
This project was achieved in collaboration with Professor Ko Hyun-hyub and his team at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), where they have cutting-edge technology for the sensor that mimics human skin.

There is a clear difference in the acoustic resonance spectra of COPD patients versus healthy controls. Our goal is to flag abnormalities early, enable earlier treatment at home and empower patients to manage their own health.”
Sylvee is a product that’s worn at the lower part of the rib cage. It promises to easily and continuously assess lung function without having to blow into anything. The wearable patch has embedded speakers and microphones that measure changes in acoustic resonance. The company claims that this is a good proxy for changes in lung air volume — which is the basis of pulmonary function testing.
