    摘要: Pressure-sensor based arrays are integrated into a control device that detects the position, motion, or movement of a one or more body parts of a user to recognize and translate the motion into a unique user-motion profile. The user motion profile may be independently analyzed or recognized as a discrete motion or gesture and used as input or commands for the control device itself or as a signal or set of signals that yields an output signal to a companion device. The pressure sensors can be attached to any body part of a user, such as the user's wrist or ankle. Motion or position, or changes therein, of the user generates an output signal that may be used to control a companion device. The source of the detectable signal is the pressure-based sensor array that yields a pressure data profile that is translated into an output signal to control the companion device.

    摘要: A foot-based wearable system disposed proximate to the dorsalis pedis artery can detect cardiac and muscular activities. Utilizing flexible iontronic sensing (FITS) technology, a sensing array detects both cardiovascular functions, such as heart rate, ECG, and respiration and motion artifact signals with a spatial reference to muscular activities based on the orientation of the array. Individual tendon responses are analyzed and correlated to different pedal gestures, from which multi-channel signals can be used to distinguish different activities. Wearable articles of the invention include a platform to simultaneously analyze both vital signals and body activities from the cardiac waveforms and muscular responses in a natural and unnoticeable fashion. The data-collecting wearable system provides a means to assess personalized health and daily activities on a continuous basis.
