Fig. 1. Wireless, soft, skin-interfaced sensor platform designed for mounting on the suprasternal notch.
(A) Image to highlight the ability of the device to conform to natural movements of the neck, without mechanical constraint, as the basis for a comfortable interface for measurements of respiratory activity and core vital signs. (B) Image of the device under severe twisting deformation. (C) Continuous wearable monitoring: cardiac- and respiratory-related signals, coughing, body temperature, and patterns of activity collected from a COVID-19 patient.
