SYSTEM AND METHOD TO MONITOR BREATHING UTILIZING POSTURE AND DIAPHRAGM SENSOR SIGNALS

摘要: Device, system and method to monitor user breathing patterns utilizing posture diaphragm (breathing) sensor signals. The user-worn device comprises a housing attached retractable belt that is worn around the user's trunk. contains both sensors, spring tensioned spool interacts with belt. monitors output signals of these sensors measures state (e.g. changes in belt's length or force on as function breathing) analyze system's processor receives, processes, transmits signal data, can also calibrate interpret various algorithms. In preferred embodiment, an accelerometer, winds device's housing.
