About
Dr. Marc Fournelle is a leading innovator in wearable ultrasound technology, with a primary focus on developing non-invasive systems for human-machine interaction and biomedical sensing. His most notable contribution is the creation of a wearable, eight-channel A-mode ultrasound system for hand gesture recognition and interactive gaming, demonstrated in 2024. This pioneering work integrates a custom-built forearm bracelet with eight piezoelectric transducers and an electronic hub, enabling real-time, high-fidelity gesture detection without the need for bulky equipment. By leveraging ultrasound to capture muscle and tendon movements, Fournelle’s system offers a robust alternative to traditional camera- or sensor-based methods, with potential applications in prosthetics, virtual reality, and rehabilitation. Although his most-cited paper has garnered 2 citations to date, its novelty and practical demonstration underscore its emerging impact. Fournelle’s research bridges engineering and clinical needs, advancing wearable tech toward seamless, intuitive interfaces. His work is particularly notable for its emphasis on portability and user comfort, setting a foundation for future studies in non-invasive gesture control and interactive systems.
