Physiological monitoring garments

This invention describes a smart shirt designed to track a person's health. It works by having a sensor module placed on the upper back, connected to fabric strips embedded with electrical wires. These wires and the sensor module work together to detect and monitor things like breathing and heart activity.

Why it matters: Since 2019, significant progress has been made in flexible electronics and miniaturized, low-power physiological sensors. These advancements make it more feasible to integrate robust, stretchable conductive elements and compact sensor modules directly into garments for continuous monitoring.
