Ford develops smart car seats that monitor heart disease

Release date: 2014-10-23

Ford is preparing to launch a car seat that detects the driver's heart activity.

The seat uses six sensors embedded in the back of the seat to detect electrical impulses while also detecting the presence of a heart attack.

If the seat detects a heart activity above normal, it will contact the necessary agency to assist the driver.

The program was implemented publicly by the Ford European R&D Center in Aachen, Germany, and the University of Aachen.

The detector with electrodes is located on the back of the seat and is designed to detect electrical impulses from the heart. The Ford heart rate monitoring seat is similar to a traditional ECG device, except that the detector is detected through the clothing on the surface of the car seat, while the traditional ECG needs to be in direct contact with the driver.

A special sensor can read the heart's electrical pulse and continuously monitor the heart rate through the driver's contact with the seat.

Ford engineers have been working hard to develop materials and electrodes that adapt to the shape and size of the human body.

Studies have shown that drivers with heart disease have a 23% higher risk of traffic accidents than normal people, and patients with angina have a higher risk. The Ford seat detects heart disease by detecting an increase in heart activity before the driver notices a heart attack. The system can send a message to inform the driver to stop.

The emergency team will also inform the driver. Ford's emergency system will be activated when the seat is found to have a heart attack, and measures should be taken to prevent the driver from accidentally causing the car to run out of control due to a heart attack.

Carbomer

Carbomer is an acrylic resin obtained by cross-linking pentaerythritol with acrylic acid. It is a very important rheological regulator. After neutralization, carbomer is an excellent gel matrix, which has important applications such as thickening suspension. According to the dry product calculation, including carboxylic acid group (-cooh) should be 56.0 % ~ 68.0%.


Common carbopol series include: Carbopol 940, 941, 934, 1342, 980, ETD 2020, AQUA sf-1, Ultrez 21, Ultrez 20, etc.
