Abstract

The authors developed a new uniform dressing/undressing detection system. This system utilizes intra-body communication technology in the form of a sensor to detect whether the uniform is worn or not. Problems associated with conventional uniform dressing/undressing detection systems using ultrasonic sensors are eliminated owing to the use of intra-body communication technology. High practicality, reliability, and safety of the proposed system were demonstrated by installing and experimenting the system in an actual uniform.
