  • Skin patches for sensing or affecting a body parameter
    Patent number: 11872144
    Abstract: Skin patch sensors for monitoring and/or affecting body parameters, with alignment, positioning and attachment using magnets. The repeated use of releasable adhesive layers to retain skin patch sensors on skin can cause skin irritation, which can be reduced by rotating a skin patch between attachment times around a magnetically coupled pivot point. Skin patch sensors can be configured with internal coils to inductively couple to external power transmitting and communications coils with solenoids in anti-Helmholtz configurations.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 22, 2019
    Date of Patent: January 16, 2024
