Lab-on-Skin: A Review of Flexible and Stretchable Electronics for Wearable Health Monitoring
TL;DR: The term "lab-on-skin" is introduced to describe a set of electronic devices that have physical properties, such as thickness, thermal mass, elastic modulus, and water-vapor permeability, which resemble those of the skin, which provide accurate, non-invasive, long-term, and continuous health monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of the noise sensitivity of nine QRS detection algorithms
TL;DR: The noise sensitivities of nine different QRS detection algorithms were measured for a normal, single-channel, lead-II, synthesized ECG corrupted with five different types of synthesized noise: electromyographic interference, 60-Hz power line interference, baseline drift due to respiration, abrupt baseline shift, and a composite noise constructed from all of the other noise types.

The Technology of Accelerometry-Based Activity Monitors: Current and Future
Kong Y. Chen,David R. Bassett +1 more
TL;DR: The development of portable accelerometers has made objective assessments of physical activity possible and nonlinear approaches to predict energy expenditure using accelerometer outputs from multiple sites and orientation can enhance accuracy.

ECG analysis: a new approach in human identification
TL;DR: Experiments show that it is possible to identify a person by features extracted from one lead only, and only three electrodes have to be attached on the person to be identified.
