摘要:
Embodiments relate generally to a wearable device implementing a touch-sensitive interface in a metal pod cover and/or bioimpedance sensing to determine physiological characteristics, such as heart rate. According to an embodiment, a method includes receiving an amplified signal including a portion of the physiological-related signal component including data representing a physiological characteristic, the amplified signal being derived from bioimpedance signal based on an impedance value of a tissue, and identifying a magnitude of a portion of the physiological-related signal component. Also, the method can compare the magnitude of the portion against another magnitude of a data model (e.g., in a time-domain) to form a matched value. Also, the method can determine a confidence indicator value representative of a degree of likelihood that the matched value is representative of the physiological characteristic, and determining a value of the physiological characteristic based on the matched value and the confidence indicator value.

Embodiments relate generally to a wearable device implementing a touch-sensitive interface in a metal pod cover and/or bioimpedance sensing to determine physiological characteristics, such as heart rate. According to an embodiment, a wearable device and method includes determining a drive current signal magnitude for a bioimpedance signal to capture data representing a physiological-related component, and selecting the drive current signal magnitude as a function of an impedance of a tissue. Further, the method can include driving the bioimpedance signal to that are configured to convey the bioimpedance signal to the tissue. Also, the method can receive the sensor signal from the tissue, adjust a gain for an amplifier, and apply the gain to data representing the physiological-related component. The method can include generating an amplified signal to include a portion of the physiological-related signal component that includes data representing a physiological characteristic.

A strap band including a flexible wire bus having electrodes and wires coupled with the electrodes is described. The strap band may be coupled with a device that includes circuitry configured to drive signals on some of the electrodes and receive signals from pickup electrodes. Driven electrodes are coupled with drive signals at different frequencies that may be varied to increase or decrease signal penetration depth to sense different body structures positioned at different depths in a body portion be sensed. Different frequencies for different types of measurements may be selected to optimize sensing different biometric parameters, such as bio-impedance, galvanic skin response, hear rate, respiration, heart rate variability, hydration, inflammation, stress, and arousal in sympathetic nervous system at different depths (e.g., layers or strata) in the body portion, for example. A first set of driven/pickup electrodes may sense different biometric parameters than a second set of driven/pickup electrodes.

A strap band including a flexible wire bus having electrodes and wires coupled with the electrodes is described. The strap band may be coupled with a device that includes circuitry configured to drive signals on some of the electrodes and receive signals from non-driven electrodes. The signal frequency applied to driven electrodes may be varied to increase/decrease signal penetration depth to sense different body structures positioned at different depths in the body portion. Different frequencies for different types of measurements may be selected to optimize sensing of bio-impedance, galvanic skin response, hear rate, respiration, heart rate variability, hydration, inflammation, stress, and arousal in sympathetic nervous system. A system clock frequency may be one of the frequencies used. A magnitude of the drive signal, a gain on the received signal or both, may be adjusted based on the frequency selected and/or to sense signals from the body structure(s) of interest.
摘要:
A strap band including a flexible wire bus having electrodes and wires coupled with the electrodes is described. The strap band may be coupled with a device that includes circuitry configured to drive signals on some of the electrodes and receive signals from non-driven electrodes. The electrode spacing and strap band dimensions may be selected to form a strap band that may accommodate a wide range of user body sizes for a target region the electrodes are positioned in contact with. The electrodes may be composite electrodes having multiple layers of conductive material in which an outermost layer is made from a material operative as an ion exchange layer. The ion exchange layer in contact with an electrolyte layer of a body portion may be operative to reduce motion artifact induced impedance and increase a signal to noise ratio for bio-impedance circuitry or other biometric circuitry coupled with the electrodes.
摘要:
Embodiments relate generally to wearable computing devices in capturing and deriving physiological characteristic data. More specifically, disclosed are one or more electrodes and methods to determine physiological characteristics using a wearable device (or carried device) and one or more sensors. In one embodiment, a method includes determining a drive signal magnitude for a bioimpedance signal to capture data representing a physiological-related component and selecting the drive signal magnitude as a function of an impedance of a tissue. The bioimpedance signal can be applied to electrodes that are configured to convey the bioimpedance signal to the tissue. In some cases, data representing a value a signal-to-noise (“SNR”) ratio may be adapted to form an adaptive signal-to-noise value. A portion of a received bioimpedance signal may be detected, the received bioimpedance signal being based on the adaptive signal-to-noise value. A physiological characteristic can be derived.

Embodiments relate generally to electrical/electronic hardware, computer software, wired and wireless network communications, portable, wearable, and stationary media devices. Media devices may include a plurality of RF transceivers, an audio system, and a proximity detection system. The RF transceivers and/or audio system may be used to wirelessly communicate between media devices and allow configuration and other data to be wirelessly transmitted from one media device to another media device. The proximity detection system may be configured to detect a presence of a user or multiple users and upon detecting presence, take some action defined by a user preference and/or environmental conditions around the media device. One or more user devices in proximity of the media device post detection may wirelessly communicate with the media device and the media device may orchestrate handling of content from those devices or from a wirelessly accessible location such as the Cloud or Internet.

Embodiments relate generally to electrical/electronic hardware, computer software, wired and wireless network communications, portable, wearable, and stationary media devices. RF transceivers and/or audio system in each media device may be used to wirelessly communicate between media devices and allow configuration and other data to be wirelessly transmitted from one media device to another media device. The proximity detection system may be configured to detect a presence of a user or multiple users and upon detecting presence, access content on a user device, and record the content while also playing back the content on the media device. One or more user devices in proximity of the media device post detection may wirelessly communicate with the media device and the media device may orchestrate handling of content from those devices or from a wirelessly accessible location such as the Cloud or Internet.
