Bandages have always helped cover up wounds, control bleeding and protect against infections. But what if they could do more? What if a bandage had the ability to alert people about infections on their wounds before they morphed into something much more dangerous?
That may soon be possible with the invention of the Smart Bandage, a bandage that not only covers up a wound but can also detect the onset of an infection and monitor it.
US Tech Future is a Verizon-led community-focused initiative working to engage the local community in a discussion about technology and how it can improve the lives of local residents for their benefit and the benefit of the community as a whole.
Our mission is to engage with citizens and community stakeholders in USA to provide information on how technology can work to have a dramatic impact on the way we work and live in our communities.
