This paper describes bio-monitoring system comprised of progressive electronic bio-sensing units and electrodes based on flexible conductive materials. Bio-monitoring system is used for long-term acquisition of physiological parameters such as ECG signal and breathing of monitored person during daily activities. In the article, the electronic and mechanical design of the system is described. The system comprises 17 electrodes, which are made of intelligent conductive fabrics and are inwrought into a shirt. Signal acquisition is ensured by smart electronic unit, which also stores measured data in the memory and/or transfers it for further analysis to PC or smartphone/tablet. This system is intended for a sports diagnostics and telemedicine monitoring of patients in home care or after medical procedure in hospital care.
