Abstract: A sensor network for pregnancy monitoring of a subject includes a plurality of sensor systems time-synchronized to each other, each sensor system placed on a respective region of the subject and having a sensor member configured to detect data associated with at least one of physiological parameters of the subject, and a Bluetooth low energy system-on-a-chip configured to process and transmit the detected data; and a controller adapted in wireless communication with the plurality of sensor systems and configured to receive, from the plurality of sensor systems, to process, and to display the physiological parameters.

Abstract: A wireless communication system has a sensor configured to detect a signal indicative of a parameter and generate sensor data as a measurement of the parameter. The sensor has a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly transmit the sensor data over a network. The wireless communication system also has operational equipment having a central processing unit for processing data and a connection adapter configured to cause the operational equipment to receive the sensor data from the network. The connection adapter comprises a key for enabling the operational equipment to identify the sensor data.

Abstract: Provided are apparatuses and methods for non-invasively and continuously measuring physiological parameters of a mammal subject. The apparatus includes multiple sensor systems attached to the mammal subject, and a microcontroller unit (MCU). The sensor systems are time-synchronized and communicate with each other wirelessly and bidirectionally. Each of the sensor systems includes at least one sensor configured to detect a vital sign of the mammal subject and generate a corresponding one of the physiological parameters. The MCU is in wireless communication with the plurality of sensor systems. In operation, the MCU receives, from the sensor systems, and displays the physiological parameters of the mammal subject. The apparatus and method can be used in applications such as developing therapeutics or vaccines for a disease, or diagnosing a disease.
