Applications of textile-based sensors for sleep-monitoring

4 Applications of textile-based sensors for sleep-monitoring [Pg.204]

Textile-based sensors have been integrated into mattresses, pyjamas/underwear, and caps/patches to monitor various parameters. This section gives an overview of the state-of-the-art textile-based sensor systems for sleep monitoring. [Pg.204]

A114Rest is a European-funded project focussing on improving tactile and thermal comfort in rest systems to promote a deeper, more restorative sleep. In the project s framework textile sensors embedded in a mattress were developed to monitor sleeping quality by measuring body movement and room temperature. This section summarises the results on the sensor systems (A114Rest, 2011). [Pg.204]

Before discussing the sensors we need to have a look at a typical mattress construction. In general, a mattress is built up by four different layers  [Pg.204]

Temperature sensing is based on a thermocouple. Hence, various pairs of metal-based filaments and yarns, listed in Table 9.2, were analysed with respect to their applicability as thermocouple materials. [Pg.206]
