  • Publication number: 20250082211
    Abstract: A multi-wavelength PPG system and method configured with optimized mechanical configuration for a chest-worn device for electrocardiogram and multi-wavelength photoplethysmogram acquisition. The multi-wavelength PPG system includes an electrocardiogram sensing assembly having two or more electrodes configured to mount the chest-worn device to the subject's chest. The multi-wavelength photoplethysmogram sensing assembly is located in between the electrocardiogram sensing electrodes to be maintained at the optimal sensing location by the mounting of the electrocardiogram sensing electrodes. The multi-wavelength photoplethysmogram includes one or more additional PPG emitters to provide additional information that can be employed to assess the quality of a signal acquisition with respect to movement artifacts, e.g., to reduce motion artifacts and/or provide accurate target data segments of higher signal quality having improved accuracy for SpO2 estimation.

  • Publication number: 20250044780
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for configuring a plant assembly station at a vehicle manufacturing plant. Plant sensor data generated by a plant sensor system is received at a plant assembly configuration system. The plant sensor data is associated with a configuration of a first plant assembly station at a vehicle manufacturing plant. A digital twin of the first plant assembly station is generated based in part on the plant sensor data. A determination is made regarding whether the configuration of the first plant assembly station is in accordance with operational regulations based on a simulation-based assessment of the digital twin of the first plant assembly station. An operability status of the configuration of the first plant assembly station is generated based on the determination.
