The aim of this course is to introduce the state-of-the-art knowledge of biomedical devices for digital medicine. Biomedical device is an emerging biomedical engineering field which applies materials science, engineering, and physical technologies. This course will provide students with fundamental understanding of basic principles underlying biomedical devices, and develop skills in the areas of wearable biosensors with health monitoring of physiological signals, advanced manufacturing (3D printing, microelectronics fabrication, and inkjet printing), energy harvesting from accessible power sources (light, chemical, mechanical, and thermal energy).

For a student to pass the course, at least 30% of the maximum mark for both coursework and examination should be obtained.
