From smart glasses to haptic gloves, wearable 科学(工学)技術 has come on leaps and bounds in 最近の years.

Now, 研究員s in Nigeria have developed a smart bra, which they say can (悪事,秘密などを)発見する breast 癌 早期に.

The smart bra was developed by Nextwear 科学(工学)技術, a wearables 会社/堅い based in Abuja, Nigeria.

Speaking to SciDev.逮捕する, Kemisola Bolarinwa, a ロボット工学 engineer who developed the smart bra, said: 'My beloved mother died of breast 癌 in 2017 at the University College Hospital in Ibadan, Nigeria because it was 診断するd late.?

'In her 区 at the hospital, I saw women of different age groups, even 十代の少年少女s, groaning in the 苦痛 of breast 癌.?

'That was when I felt I needed to 与える/捧げる my part to fight the 病気.'

The bra is lined with small, 殴打/砲列-operated ultrasound sensors, and syncs up with a 動きやすい or web app.?

'The result will show if the tumour is benign [害のない] or malignant [harmful],' Ms Bolarinwa explained.

'The smart bra must be worn on the breasts for a 最大限 of 30 minutes for the result to show.?

'The app also has an interface for the result to be transmitted to a doctor.'

While women 現在/一般に have to go to the doctor to be 審査するd for breast 癌, Ms Bolarinwa says that women could use the 装置 安全に from the 慰安 of their home.

'If they could (悪事,秘密などを)発見する 早期に that they have 癌, then they will be 安全な, and many don't have to die,' she 追加するd.

Nextwear 科学(工学)技術 has been working on the smart bra for four years, and hopes it will be ready to market by July this year.

'We have 行為/行うd a 地元の 裁判,公判 and got about 70 per cent 正確. We are working に向かって 95-97 per cent 正確,' Ms Bolarinwa said.
