Wear-and-Forget Electrocardiogram and Ventilation Sensor Suitable for Multi-day Use in Physically-Active Warfighters

Active Signal Technologies proposes a thoroughly planned systematic development effort to produce a system that will meet the requirements of rugged operational monitoring to provide continuous electrocardiogram (ECG) and ventilation data on activelydeployed personnel. The program starts with a comprehensive literature survey across a broad range of life sciences, technology and government research disciplines to examine all applicable sensing technologies together with approaches to eliminatingnoise and artifact associated with ambulatory monitoring. Proof of principle experiments will be conducted on the most promising techniques uncovered by this review. Without prejudicing the outcome of the comprehensive review and planning process, ActiveSignal will be undertaking a parallel lab based effort to build brassboard prototypes of three products already under development with the aim of demonstrating capability under operational conditions.
