Research Abstract |
How to form a model to construct small and thin sheet type monitoring sensor system was investigated. The model may consist of both physical model that corresponds to human body structure and motion, and physiological model corresponds to respiration, blood flow and heartbeat. To estimate bodily state only from under-abdomen type or under-pillow type sensors that collect smaller amount of information compared to full-body distributed sensors, it was clarified that not only expanding density of pressure sensing but also shear force distribution measurement is useful.
