IIT Roorkee researchers develop self-powered smart bandage that uses body movement to support wound healing

Researchers from IIT Roorkee and INST, Mohali, have developed 3D-MIDAS, a self-powered electronic bandage that converts natural body movement into electrical stimulation for wound healing. The battery-free scaffold can stretch to approximately 800% of its original length and also supports breathability and wound-fluid management. Laboratory and animal studies reported increased cell proliferation, migration and wound closure. The technology generated electrical output during natural movement and maintained stable performance through repeated stretching and three months of testing.
