Abstract

We developed a chair-attached, nonintrusive photoplethysmogram (PPG) measuring system for everyday life, unconstrained monitoring using nonskin-contacting sensor-amplifier circuits capable of emitting suitable light intensity adaptable to clothing characteristics. Comparison between proposed and conventional systems showed reasonable correlation and root-mean-squared error levels, indicating its feasibility for unconstrained PPG monitoring.
