Abstract: Monitoring devices and monitoring technology are disclosed for a number of applications. A monitoring device that attaches to a measurement site includes at least one of an optical sensor, a temperature sensor, or first and second electrical contact sensors. A monitoring device or a smart garment can be powered by one or more bio-batteries that is each formed by electrodes in contact with the user's body (e.g., skin) or an animal. Various method and algorithms can be used to process signals received from the optical sensor, a temperature sensor, and/or first and second electrical contact sensors. The signals received from the optical sensor, a temperature sensor, and/or first and second electrical contact sensors can be transmitted to a host device. An application program on a host device can process the signals to compute one or more physiological parameters, waveform data, trend data, and/or one or more reports.

Abstract: Clinical-grade monitoring technology is disclosed for a number of applications where low-cost, wireless, multi-parameter, single-use and multi-use medical and fitness and/or wellness devices are useful and beneficial. A monitoring device that attaches or is placed on a measurement site includes at least one of an optical sensor, a temperature sensor, or first and second electrical contact sensors. Signals received from the optical sensor, a temperature sensor, and/or first and second electrical contact sensors can be transmitted to a host device. An application program on a host device can process the signals to compute one or more physiological parameters, waveform data, trend data, and/or one or more reports.
