A group of tech companies is working on a patch about the size of a small bandage that could be worn to monitor elevated body temperatures that can sometimes signal the onset of COVID-19.

The patch would be powered by a specially designed microchip that will be made in Minnesota at a chip factory operated by SkyWater Technology in collaboration with Ohio-based chip design firm Linear ASICs and New York investment firm Asymmetric Return Capital.

The group aims to produce a device to monitor temperatures remotely that can be manufactured in high volumes. The work is part of a broader partnership with 2 other firms: Software maker SensiML, a subsidiary of QuickLogic Corp, and Upward Health, a provider of in-home health care.
