Scientists have developed a graphene sensor: in the future, it can prevent infants from dying from SIDS

The study of graphene has always been a matter of concern to the government. The development of graphene has a large space and high utilization rate. The research on graphene has never stopped.

Scientists at the University of Sussex have recently created a sensor that may prevent infants from dying from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) in the future. The sensor takes the form of a flexible rubber tube which is subsequently filled with a mixture of water, oil and graphene particles.

A graphene having a thick carbon atom has high conductivity. This means that the solution can also conduct electricity, although its conductivity will change as the tube stretches very little. When this change can be detected, it indicates that exercise is taking place (for example, when the person breathes, the chest rises and falls).

Dr. Matthew, Principal Investigator, explained: “What we do is similar to making salad dressing. By mixing water and oil together, a tiny droplet of liquid floats in another liquid, Because the two are not mixed. Usually, the droplets will come together and the liquid will separate over time...we solve this problem by putting graphene. A graphene with a thick carbon atom is located in the droplet. Surfaces, preventing them from coalescing."

"When graphene particles are combined around a droplet, electrons can jump from one particle to the next; this is why the entire liquid is electrically conductive," he continued. “When we stretch the sensor, we squeeze and deform the droplets, which will further separate the graphene particles, making the electronic skipping system more difficult.”

If the sensor is attached to the baby in the form of a fitness tracker, or integrated into their clothes, the baby's heartbeat and breathing can be monitored, and if stopped, an alarm sounds. The technology can also be used to monitor sleep apnea in adults, or even find ways to integrate sportswear into athletes who want to track their heart or respiratory rate.

It is reported that the sensitivity of the system is much higher than that of many other motion detection techniques, and the sensor is easy and inexpensive to manufacture. The university worked with Advanced Materials Development to commercialize the technology.
