The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to minimize short-and long- term effects of heat exhaustion and heat stroke, impact, and other conditions. The proposed project advances an oral system capable of monitoring physiology and physical responses. The initial application of athletics enables development of a tool that can be used more broadly for health monitoring of military forces and other users at risk.This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop a durable, adaptable, and wholly instrumented physiology monitoring mouth guard system that can provide real-time tracking of a range of biometrics, such as impact force and body temperature. Intra-oral measurements lend themselves monitoring and assessment, and a mouth guard can collect precise multi-sensor data at low power, then transmit data wirelessly. The proposed research and development activities will focus on development and integration of sensors and wireless communication capabilities for real-time data on health (e.g., core temperature), movement (e.g., acceleration, rotational motion), and impact forces (e.g., high-velocity collision).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目的更广泛的影响/商业潜力是最大限度地减少热衰竭和中暑，影响和其他条件的短期和长期影响。 该项目提出了一种能够监测生理和身体反应的口腔系统。 田径运动的初步应用使开发一种工具，可以更广泛地用于军队和其他处于危险中的用户的健康监测。这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目将开发一种耐用，适应性强，完全仪表化的生理监测护齿系统，可以提供一系列生物特征的实时跟踪，如冲击力和体温。口腔内测量有助于监测和评估，护齿器可以以低功耗收集精确的多传感器数据，然后无线传输数据。拟议的研究和开发活动将侧重于开发和整合传感器和无线通信能力，以获得有关健康的实时数据（例如，核心温度），运动（例如，加速度，旋转运动），和冲击力（例如，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
