TS-073028 — Neonatal units need unobtrusive, continuous monitoring of presence, posture, motion, and growth metrics (recumbent length, optional weight) without cameras, wires, or labor‑intensive workflows. Frequent, accurate measurements are critical for early detection of growth deviations and unsafe sleep…

TS-072052 — The Need Current wearable sensors for muscle health are limited in their ability to track real-time geometric changes in muscle size and shape, especially outside controlled laboratory environments. Existing solutions, such as force myography and ultrasound, either lack direct geometric insight or a…

TS-071847 — The Need Current fast neutron detection technologies suffer from inherently low sensitivity due to the limited interaction cross-section between neutrons and atomic nuclei. This restricts their effectiveness in critical applications such as nuclear security, radiation dosimetry, and advanced imaging…

TS-071745 — The Need Current two-way shape memory polymers (SMPs) require expensive, crystalline or liquid crystalline monomers and complex synthesis, limiting their use in cost-sensitive and biocompatible applications. Widely used amorphous polymers (e.g., polystyrene, PMMA) are inexpensive and common in con…

TS-071414 — The Need Current neurochemical monitoring technologies are limited by bulky form factors, complex fabrication, and invasiveness, which restrict their clinical and research utility. Existing sensors often cause tissue damage, lack real-time resolution, and are costly to manufacture, impeding widespre…

TS-070304 — The Need Current clinical methods for assessing tremor severity in patients with Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders rely heavily on subjective, qualitative observations, such as evaluating hand-drawn spirals or observing motor tasks. These approaches lack precision, are difficult…

TS-069527 — The Need Cardiovascular MRI (CMR) data acquisition is often time-consuming and relies on complex reconstruction methods that do not fully exploit the spatial and temporal structure of CMR data. There is a need for a more efficient, unsupervised approach that can accelerate CMR imaging while maintai…

TS-067796 — A handheld device for identifying preterm blood vessels in neonatal ICU.

TS-067045 — The Need Wireless implants with integrated antennas are highly desirable for diagnostic, therapeutic, and monitoring applications due to their ability to communicate directly with external devices. However, the need for major surgical incisions to implant these devices poses significant risks, incl…

TS-066962 — The Need Viral disease surveillance (e.g. influenza, SARS-CoV-2) in high-risk settings faces several challenges, such as asymptomatic carriers, incomplete reporting, resource limitations, and delayed diagnosis of traditional swab test methods. These challenges could allow a virus to silently spread…
