Description
Summary:We aimed to reduce the recovery time for baseball pitchers from the established recovery period of four days to only one day. We designed a wearable and flexible arm sleeve composed of knitted nylon and a polyether–polyurea copolymer that has embedded proprietary dry electrodes that deliver a personalized microcurrent electron stream regimen as well as physiological motion sensors that provide real-time feedback for this electroceutical’s efficacy, positioning it as a revolutionary e-textile for enhancing and gauging sporting proficiency. Healables<sup>®</sup> (Jerusalem, Israel) developed a noninvasive wearable device that docks onto its adjustable e-textile for team training and on-the-go and home-based improvement in terms of sports readiness, recovery, and performance.
