In this presentation, I will introduce the research, development, and social implementation of "sheet-type bio-electrical potential measurement systems," utilizing flexible, and stretchable electronic devices realized by highly integrating functional organic materials. Specifically, I will introduce the electrical characteristics of lightweight electronics that can be attached to human skin to accurately measure bio-electrical potentials and present our efforts to develop the world's first medical-use patch-type electroencephalograph (EEG) using these technologies. We are currently working with several medical institutions to develop algorithms for measuring dementia, menopausal disorders, developmental disorders, and epilepsy and their visualization (EEG AI analysis tool). Furthermore, we are working to develop the Brain-Tech market, which contributes to our life, not only in medicine, but also in healthcare.
