  • Publication number: 20040034289
    Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring human status parameters including at least two sensors, at least one sensor being a physiological sensor. The at least two sensors are adapted to generate data indicative of at least a first parameter of an individual and a second parameter of an individual. The apparatus also includes a processor for receiving at least a portion of the data indicative of a first parameter and a second parameter. The processor is adapted to generate derived data from at least a portion of the data indicative of a first parameter and a second parameter. The derived data is a third parameter of the individual that cannot be directly detected by any of the at least two sensors. In one embodiment, the at least one sensor is a physiological sensor selected from a group of specific sensors. In another embodiment, the third parameter is selected from a group of specific parameters.

  • Patent number: 6605038
    Abstract: A system for detecting, monitoring and reporting physiological information includes a sensor device adapted to be worn on the upper arm that includes at least one of an accelerometer, a GSR sensor and a heat flux sensor and generates data indicative of at least one of activity, galvanic skin response and heat flow. The sensor device may also generate derived data from at least a portion of the data indicative of at least one of activity, galvanic skin response and heat flow. The system includes a central monitoring unit that generates analytical status data from at least one of the data indicative of at least one of activity, galvanic skin response and heat flow, the derived data, and previously generated analytical status data, a means for establishing electronic communication between the sensor device and the central monitoring unit, and a means for transmitting data to a recipient.

  • Publication number: 20020019586
    Abstract: A detecting, monitoring and reporting apparatus includes at least two sensors for facilitating the generation of data indicative of physiological parameters of the individual and/or data indicative of a contextual parameters of the individual. A processor is coupled to the sensors and is adapted to generate at least one of derived data from at least a portion of the data indicative of physiological parameters and analytical status data from at least a portion of at least one of the data indicative of physiological parameters, the data indicative of contextual parameters, the derived data and the analytical status data. A memory retrievably stores the data and one of various ways of transmitting the data is provided.
