Health monitoring through wearables is an unstoppable trend. In contrast with health care done in a discrete manner (e.g. checking vital signs during a doctor visit,) continuous monitoring of vital signs allows for preventive healthcare, saving cost and improving quality of life. Today many wearables offer activity tracking, heart rate and heart rate variability through PPG and ECG sensors, but temperature (and body temperature in particular) remains an elusive, yet very relevant variable.
In this webinar we first explain why skin thermometry through wearables has great potential for health monitoring applications. Secondly we explain why it is so difficult to measure skin temperature in an accurate way, both for contact and non-contact temperature sensors and finally we look into a solution.
If you are interested to learn more about the role of skin thermometry in continuous health monitoring for wearables and understand the pitfalls and solutions, then please feel free to register for this webinar.
