Early diagnosis as well as a healthy and preventive lifestyle can help slowing the onset of many health problems and save millions of lives per year. To achieve this objective, long-term monitoring of human vital signs are required to obtain knowledge on a person's health status. Continuous monitoring of vital signs is mandatory, but continuous transmission is expensive, in terms of financial costs as well as power consumption for battery operated portable systems. Clothing is like a second skin to us: intelligent biomedical clothes may make everyday life easier for people in poor health, helping them to lead productive lives, senior citizens and also for athletes. Clothing means fashion and fun: smart clothes will combine health problem prevention, entertainment, comfort, convenience and communication with fashion. This paper presents essential issues in wearable electronics, including interface with the garment, signal sensing and enhancement, signal processing of signal combination, on-body diagnosis and on-body and distant communication. The paper reports on experience acquired through related projects running at the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology.
早期诊断以及健康的预防性生活方式有助于减缓许多健康问题的发生，并每年挽救数百万人的生命。为实现这一目标，需要对人体生命体征进行长期监测，以获取有关个人健康状况的信息。对生命体征进行持续监测是必不可少的，但对于电池供电的便携式系统而言，持续传输在经济成本和功耗方面都很高。衣服就像我们的第二层皮肤：智能生物医学服装可能会让健康状况不佳的人日常生活更轻松，帮助他们过上有意义的生活，也适用于老年人和运动员。衣服意味着时尚和乐趣：智能服装将把健康问题预防、娱乐、舒适、便利以及与时尚的通信结合起来。本文介绍了可穿戴电子产品中的关键问题，包括与服装的接口、信号传感与增强、信号组合的信号处理、身体诊断以及身体与远程通信。本文报告了在瑞士电子与微技术中心开展的相关项目中获得的经验。
