Wearable real-time respiration monitor - Breathe4U

Correct breathing is an important aspect of any exercise, as it impacts the efficiency of exercise and the ability of the practitioner to reach their goals. Proper breathing is especially critical in fitness and recovery exercises, where breathing rate and depth should be optimized towards a specific fitness or recovery goal. However, there is no widely available technology to track breathing in real time as it occurs, and none that is tailored for the fitness and recovery markets. In this presentation, we will review the state of the art in real-time breathing monitoring, contrasting that to our own wearable patch that is designed to be lightweight, user-friendly and comfortable. The patch is paired with an app that is tailored for use in fitness optimization. We will outline the potential of this solution on the fitness and recovery markets."
