Inspired by the medical bay of the USS Enterprise from “Star Trek,” a research team from the University of Waterloo uses radar technology to monitor people’s health while at the wheel, turning an ordinary car or truck into a mobile medical hub. The research paper, “Multibin Breathing Pattern Estimation by Radar Fusion for Enhanced Driver Monitoring,” was published in IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement.
