FOOT WORN PHYSIOLOGICAL SENSOR AND SYSTEMS INCLUDING SAME

Fuente: Wipo "Sensorization"
A system for measuring at least one physiological parameter includes a wearable device configured to be secured to a subject’s foot and a sensor component that is removably securable to the wearable device. The wearable device includes a base configured to contact a bottom of the subject’s foot, a wall extending outward from the base and configured to surround a heel of the subject’s foot, and a sensor component that is removably securable to the wearable device. The sensor component includes a sensor hub configured to be removably secured to the wearable device, a sensor strap configured to be wrapped around the subject’s foot and secured to the wearable device, an emitter configured to emit optical radiation into tissue of the subject’s foot, and one or more detectors configured to detect at least a portion of the emitted optical radiation after passing through the tissue.
