  • Patent number: 9311825
    Abstract: An apparatus for interoperably utilizing multiple biosensor data obtained from a finger of the user. A biometric sensor board is retained in a housing adapted for retaining a finger of the user and maintaining multiple sensors in contact with the skin thereof. Implementations are described for fingertip and ring mounted sensor boards. In one implementation, these sensors can be sensors electrodermal response (EDR), or photoplethysmograph (PPG) signals, or temperature, or acceleration in three axes, and combinations thereof. The biometric sensor board registers and processes the signals from the sensors and communicates them to a mobile device which interoperably utilizes multiple sensor information to determine aspects of user emotional state within an application to generate results which are displayed on the mobile device.
