A breakthrough in this evolving field has been documented through collaborative research, led by Prof Parameswar K Iyer of IIT Guwahati and scientists from the University of Hyderabad and IISc Bengaluru. The IIT Guwahati researchers have formulated four novel organic photo-functional co-crystals that can emit light efficiently with minimal loss.
The sensor may contribute to elderly fall detection, especially in patients with Parkinson's disease or those with disabilities, and it can support injury rehabilitation.
