Radiological threats—whether from nuclear weapons, dirty bombs, or CBRN incidents—demand precise, real-time radiation monitoring in the field. WearableDose provides a mission-critical solution: a compact, AI-powered patch that delivers live radiation exposure data for individual warfighters. Built with tissue-equivalent materials, the patch accurately measures dose during operations, without reliance on bulky external hardware or delayed analysis. Our platform integrates AI algorithms to forecast cumulative exposure, assess unit-level risk, and inform real-time tactical decisions. The system operates autonomously, with optional secure data sync to centralized command platforms. WearableDose enhances both immediate survivability and long-term health surveillance for deployed personnel. The technology has dual-use potential for VA healthcare and disaster response, and is currently being validated through collaborations with national labs and defense innovation programs. As asymmetric and radiological threats evolve, WearableDose enables a proactive approach to exposure management, enhancing operational readiness, troop protection, and strategic decision-making.
