  • Publication number: 20180160928
    Abstract: A wearable electrode includes: a garment including an outer member and a backing member configured to cover at least a part of an inner surface of the outer member; and an electrode unit configured to come into contact with a living body clothed in the garment to acquire a biological signal emitted by the living body and attached to an opposite side of the backing member from the outer member, and a core wire which can be inserted into an accommodation section formed in the electrode unit. The outer member and the backing member are connected to a part other than a part of the backing member, to which the electrode unit is attached.

  • Publication number: 20180064397
    Abstract: A wearable device attached to a subject includes an accelerometer that measures acceleration information, and a biological sensor that measures biological signal information of the subject. From the measured acceleration information and biological signal information, first feature data corresponding to a first predetermined period and second feature data corresponding to a second predetermined period are extracted. By machine learning based on the first feature data, a dynamic/static activity identification model, a dynamic-activity identification model, and a static-activity identification model, for the subject, are generated. By combination of results of determination based on each of the identification models, a posture and an activity of the subject are identified, and correspondence information, which associates the identified posture and activity with the biological signal information of the subject, is generated.

  • Publication number: 20170224244
    Abstract: In a biological signal measurement system of this invention, biological digital data is generated from a biological signal measured by a biological signal measurement apparatus, and first feature amount data extracted from the biological digital data and downsized biological digital data are transmitted to a portable terminal. In a biological information measurement apparatus of this invention, biological feature amount data is extracted from measured biological waveform data, and at least one of the biological waveform data and the biological feature amount data is transmitted to an external device. It is possible to provide a biological signal measurement system capable of continuously measuring a biological signal for a long time without disturbing daily life and provide a biological information measurement apparatus capable of implementing downsizing and long life of a battery.
