An international team of scientists and researchers has developed a smart skin sensor for real-time monitoring of skin temperature. That sensor is incorporated into a device that uses this measurement data to detect temperature fluctuations that indicate the presence of inflammation and infections. What is special is that the device developed for this purpose uses a thermoelectric system and therefore does not require a battery or external power supply.

The smart skin sensor was developed as part of a European project, led by researchers at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) in Spain, in collaboration with researchers at the University of Porto working on renewable energy systems. The goal of this research was to increase the autonomy of sensors used...
