E-Tattoos: Toward Functional but Imperceptible Interfacing with Human Skin.

The human body continuously emits physiological and psychological information from head to toe. Wearable electronics capable of noninvasively and accurately digitizing this information without compromising user comfort or mobility have the potential to revolutionize telemedicine, mobile health, and both human-machine or human-metaverse interactions. However, state-of-the-art wearable electronics face limitations regarding wearability and functionality due to the mechanical incompatibility between conventional rigid, planar electronics and soft, curvy human skin surfaces.

Blood Pressure Estimation using a Single Channel Bio-Impedance Ring Sensor.

The demand for non-obtrusive, accurate, and continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring systems is becoming more prevalent with the realization of its significance in preventable cardiovascular disease (CVD) globally. Current cuff-based standards are bulky, uncomfortable, and are limited to discrete recording periods. Wearable sensor technologies such as those using optical photoplethysmography (PPG) have been used to develop blood pressure estimation models through a variety of methods.

A Non-invasive Radial Arterial Compliance Measuring Method using Bio-Impedance.

Arterial compliance is one of the essential indicators of certain types of cardiovascular disease, with both systematic and local compliance exhibiting significance. Radial arterial compliance (RAC) has been regarded as an important type of local compliance in several long-term pathophysiological studies. Bio-Impedance (Bio-Z) is a non-invasive signal which can be used to unobtrusively monitor blood volume changes, captured using wearable sensors.
