Flexible Health Patch Uses Real-Time ECG and Tissue-Contact Impedance for Accurate Monitoring of Physical Activity

Holst Centre and imec have unveiled a prototype flexible health patch weighing just 10g – half the weight of current products. The patch uses real-time electrocardiogram (ECG), tissue-contact impedance and accelerometer information to accurately monitor physical activity. Thanks to advanced system in package (SiP) technology from SHINKO ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES CO., LTD., the electronics module measures less than two by two centimeters. The high accuracy algorithms, low power consumption, and small size and weight make it ideal for consumer applications.
