What is going on? Doctors wonder if the questions they examine patients. With the help of nanotechnology, medical illness shortly least one step ahead. How small measuring devices will change our lives from now until 2015, training aid for athletes to anti-epileptic implants. Nanotechnology is not science fiction.

Between now and end 2010

A little runner now has a large sports watch. Soon no more.
An ultra thin chip of IMEC: smaller and more economical. Useful for running equipment and medical applications.

The first nano-measurement devices that we will see, starting as a gadget for athletes. Now, joggers and runners often equipped with a sports watch that measures heart rate. That is not always nice when you already running with your arms waving, and therefore there are also links you to your heartbeat using bind. “That’s all changing quickly,” says Chris van Hoof, director of research at the institute IMEC in Leuven. “We make small nanotechnology with measurement devices that you can easily carry and far more than just the heart rate measurement. While you train makes a heart full movie – so variations in heart rate and everything. This is ideal for performance measurement in an individual training complex. ”

Professional applications coming soon. The alcohol breath test by the Dutch police in 2010 could expect an enhancement device with a saliva test for drugs. This is nanotechnology Philips processed. “The detector responds to drugs such as amphetamine or THC – the active ingredient of cannabis,” says Hans Hofstraat, medical research director at Philips. Street agents may have such a thing so easily identify different species than alcohol intoxication.
