Abstract: A biomedical sensor and sensor system for analysis of breath are disclosed. The biomedical sensor can include two layers arranged to swell or contract in a plane perpendicular to an axial direction while being restricted from swelling in the axial direction. The biomedical sensor includes resistance connections to allow measurement of the resistance of each layer and a combined resistance of both layers. The sensor system can include one, two, or three or more sensors, each having a pair of electrodes separated by a gap and one or more layers of composite material located within the gap. the sensor system includes resistance circuits configured to measure changes in resistance between the electrodes. A polypyrrole/polymethyl methacrylate/polyethylene glycol composite material and method of making the same are disclosed.

Abstract: Wireless sensor system that integrate sensors, wireless communication module, and user interface units are disclosed. The system can include sensors fabricated for identifying hypoglycemia in the breath of a patient. The system can provide a low-power and small form factor wireless sensor system that integrates multiple sensors (e.g. resistor and capacitor based) and includes an on-chip temperature sensor in an ASIC. The disclosed system collects information from the sensors and wirelessly transmits the processed information to end user interface units, such as smart phones. The systems can be used in healthcare applications, including un-interrupted involuntary continuous monitoring of vital parameters of human body or environment, and other applications, and can be particularly adapted to monitoring hypoglycemia.
