The Technology Collaboration Center is planning to hold a 2 day Wearable Technologies Workshop on April 27 & 28, 2020, hosted by NASA Johnson Space Center, using a 2-day format similar to previously held Wearable Technologies Workshops in 2018 and 2019.
The first day will be the Challenge Program, when university student teams demonstrate proof-of-concept prototypes developed to address challenges posted by NASA and other organizations.
The second day will have a TCC technology workshop with cross-sector presentations on the latest technology advances and unmet challenges related to wearable technologies..
Please contact the TCC if you are interested in volunteering for the Program Committee, submitting a Collaboration Request related to wearable technologies (program fees are waived for requests submitted related to a workshop), or sponsoring the workshop.
