1. A computer-implemented method for monitoring a health condition of an individual using a wearable device, wherein the wearable device comprises:
an absorbent layer,
a wickaway liner, and
a sensing circuit positioned between the absorbent layer and the wickaway liner, the
sensing circuit comprising a first sensor and a second sensor,
the method comprising:
detecting, using the first sensor of the sensing circuit, an occurrence of an event, wherein the event corresponds to an excretion of bodily waste;
in response to detecting the occurrence of the event using the first sensor, activating the second sensor of the sensing circuit, wherein the second sensor is different from the first sensor;
capturing, using the second sensor, color information on one or more of the absorbent layer and the wickaway liner, the color information indicating a color of the bodily waste, wherein the second sensor is configured to capture color information of solid and non-solid bodily waste;
receiving health data from the sensing circuit, the health data comprising an indication of the occurrence of the event and the captured color information;
based on the health data, identifying a type of bodily waste corresponding to the event, the type of bodily waste identified from a plurality of predefined types of bodily waste; and
providing an output indicative of the event and the identified type of bodily waste.
