Powering and communicating with implantable medical devices using NIR light (IMAGE)
Caption
Researchers at the University of Oulu has introduced an approach using near-infrared (NIR) light beyond light therapy for facilitating simultaneous wireless power transfer and communication to electronic implantable medical devices (IMDs). Previously, the research team demonstrated that NIR light for wireless communication is feasible, and now the team made progress by involving wireless charging capabilities using the same light.
