Abstract

An integrated adhesive sensor array includes an adhesive a patch, a sensor hub, and a detachable sensor pod packaged as a unit. The patch may include a docking area for the detachable sensor pod. The detachable sensor pod may include at least one sensor and may be configured to be detached from the patch and applied to various locations on a body. The detachable sensor pod may send sensor data to the sensor hub via a wired link when on the patch and via a wireless link when detached from the patch. The sensor hub receives sensor data from the detachable sensor pod and relays the data to a receiver. The sensor hub and detachable sensor pod may include indicators for communicating information. The sensor hub may include a power source for powering the sensor hub and a detachable sensor pod attached to the main sensor unit or patch.

Description

Background technique [0001] Adhesive "peel-off" sensors are becoming commonly used in biometrics and biomedical monitoring. In an example, a wireless adhesive sensor can be applied to a body part of a patient and can measure various biometrics. While wireless sensors offer a certain level of convenience, challenges remain. [0002] Challenges in implementing wearable sensors include reliability, connection quality, data security, integrity and fault tolerance, integration of different sensor technologies, managing latency of real-time measurements, comfort, durability and other challenges. Given these challenges, the shortcomings of existing sensors and sensor networks are numerous. Existing wireless sensors can be large, have limited usage time, limited battery life and may not monitor all desired parameters. Larger sensor sizes may be a disadvantage because adhesive sensors may not fit well on the wearer. Additionally, multiple large sensors can become cumbersome for the...
