The world of healthcare is experiencing a major transformation , driven by the increasing demand for continuous , real-time health insights through advanced wearable technology and personalised treatment options . Advances in semiconductor technology are helping to drive this movement , enabling wearable devices to become more compact , costeffective and computationally capable . These improvements can unlock new possibilities for gaining deeper insights into the human body and enhance overall health management .
One of the largest drawbacks to healthcare wearables , whether it be smart watches or health trackers , is their battery life and energy source . Brandon Lucia , CEO and Co-founder of Efficient Computer , dives into the challenge and its solutions .
However , despite the advances and demand surge , many of today ’ s wearables still operate on traditional processors , presenting limitations . These processors are often inefficient and consume excessive energy , shortening battery life , limiting device capability and leading to poor user experiences . To fully realise the potential of smart , computationally capable healthcare wearables , we need a revolutionary shift to ultra-high-efficiency programmable processors .
The wearable power problem
The wearables market is growing fast with more than one billion users as of last year . Yet , many wearables , such as smartwatches and fitness trackers ,
