Wearable self-powered systems for human body monitoring
Giorgio De Pasquale, Aurelio Somà · 2013
Recent researches indicate the possibility of integrating low power MEMS sensors and energy harvesters on human body to monitor physiological and vital parameters without power consumption. Wearable monitoring devices with energetic autonomy represent potential cutting technology to detect and interpret vital signs data with non-invasive approach. The technological challenges related to this field addresses to the design of efficient, reliable and non-invasive devices for harvesting power from human body motion
