An NC State research center has created a new health innovation that can predict and prevent asthma attacks. It’s known as the Health and Environmental Tracker (HET), and it consists of a wristband and chest patch.
Veena Misra, a professor of electrical and computer engineering, assisted in making the invention in hopes that it would help people nationally who study and research asthma. Misra is part of the leadership team of the Advanced Self-Powered Systems of Integrated Sensors and Technologies (ASSIST) at NC State, the center responsible for the new technology.
