Novel technology at hand to measure skin hydration by Biodisplay smartphone touch screen panel
Abstract Skin hydration is generally evaluated using devices that measure capacitance or conductance. A new technology (Biodisplay) was developed to provide accurate measurements of skin hydration at the contact site. This study aimed to test the reliability of the Biodisplay by comparing its perfor...
