About
Who is building this
NeoBreath is developed at KNUST with the DIPPER Lab, as an engineering and research project rather than a product launch.
Where the work happens
The project sits in the DIPPER Lab at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology. It is a hardware, signal-processing and clinical-collaboration effort, and it is early.
The team
The prototype has been built and presented by the project's research associate together with the supervising team at the lab. A full roster is being prepared; in the meantime, contact goes to the team directly.
A full roster with roles is pending. In the meantime, use the contact form and your message will reach the team.
One NeoBreath device is dedicated to one infant. Multi-infant triage for a single nurse is not part of this work.
TODAY— Built and demonstrated in the current prototype.Ways to be involved
Clinical collaboration
If you work in neonatal care, we would like to understand the alarm burden you actually experience.
Signal processing and ML
Artifact rejection on low-power wearable hardware is the open technical problem.
Hardware and power
Fitting sensing, radio and inference inside the belt's power budget is unsolved.
Support and funding
The project is developed without commercial backing at this stage.
NeoBreath is a research and development project at the prototype stage. It is not a medical device, it has not been clinically validated yet, and it is not a replacement for professional care.
