The biological information measuring garment for cattle includes a clothing fabric; and an electrode provided on a skin-side surface of the clothing fabric, the clothing fabric including a first band portion on one end and a second band portion on another end in a body peripheral direction of the clothing fabric, and the clothing fabric having a larger area in a front-side region ahead of a region from the first band portion to the second band portion of the clothing fabric than an area in a back-side region behind the region from the first band portion to the second band portion.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a garment for measuring biological information for animals, in which the electrode portion is less likely to be displaced from the body even upon a movement of an animal and the biological information can be measured accurately, and to provide a method for measuring biological information. A garment for measuring biological information comprising a front body and a back body having a large tensile elongation EMT. Since the garment for measuring biological information has a band around a torso, it is possible to prevent the electrodes from being displaced from the body due to a movement. Further, since the connection portion between the front body and the back body of the garment for measuring biological information is made of a woven or knitted fabric that expands and contracts in the direction from the head to the tail, the electrodes are less likely to be displaced from the body even upon a great movement.

The animal garment includes a knitted fabric, the knitted fabric containing 2 mass % or more and 100 mass % or less of antifungal fibers, and 30 mass % or more and 100 mass % or less of fibers having a single fiber fineness of 0.3 dtex or more and 1.1 dtex or less.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a biological information measurement garment having excellent peel strength between a clothing fabric including spun yarns and an electrode. The garment includes a clothing fabric; and an electrode formed on a skin-side surface of the clothing fabric, the clothing fabric including spun yarns present on the skin-side surface on which the electrode is formed, and each of the spun yarns satisfying a following formula (1): F/(0.8673/?Ne)<4500??(1), wherein F represents a number of fluffy fibers (fibers/10 m) having a length of 1 mm or more, per 10 m of the spun yarn, and Ne represents an English yarn count of the spun yarn.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a biological information measurement garment that reduces the wear discomfort. The garment includes a clothing fabric; and an electrode formed on a skin-side surface of the clothing fabric, the clothing fabric having, in the skin-side surface thereof, an area of 30 cm2 or more that is not covered with the electrode and is exposed, the electrode including a conductive member, and a heat capacity A (J/K) of the conductive member and a heat capacity B (J/K) of the clothing fabric satisfying a following formula (1).

Abstract: A biometric information presentation system that enables efficient training by obtaining biometric information without giving a subject a sense of discomfort. The biometric information presentation system uses a garment-type biometric information measuring apparatus including at least fabric having a 20% elongation stress of 20 N or less. A garment pressure of the garment-type biometric information measuring apparatus is 0.1 kPa or more and 1.5 kPa or less. A skin contact-type electrode is provided at a portion of the garment-type biometric information measuring apparatus at which a garment pressure is 0.3 kPa or more. The garment-type biometric information measuring apparatus is worn by the subject. From obtained electrocardiographic information is calculated an RRI, an indicator of parasympathetic activity and indicator of sympathetic activity.
