Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a wearable device and systems/methods relating to the device. Certain embodiments may include two flexible wings and a bridge connecting the two wings. In some embodiments, the upper surface of the bridge can be non-adhesive and uncoupled to the flexible wing such that the flexible wing can be decoupled from the bridge when the adhesive is adhered to the surface of a user.
Claims20
A monitoring device configured to attach to a user, the device comprising
- a housing comprising a hardware processor;
- a wing extending from the housing and configured to conform to a surface of a user, the wing comprising an electrode configured to detect a physiological signal of the user, the electrode in electrical communication with the hardware processor;
- an adhesive layer coupled to the bottom surface of the wing, the adhesive layer configured to adhere the wearable device to the user;
- a substrate layer positioned over the adhesive layer, the substrate layer comprising a plurality of apertures extending from a bottom surface of the substrate layer to a top surface of the substrate layer, the apertures configured to transport moisture from the surface of the user;
- and
- wherein individual apertures overlie individual continuous portions of the adhesive layer.
A method of monitoring physiological signals, comprising:
- attaching a monitoring device to a user, the monitoring device comprising:
- a housing comprising a hardware processor,
- a wing extending from the housing, the wing comprising an adhesive layer coupled to a bottom surface of the wing,
- a substrate layer overlying the adhesive layer, the substrate layer comprising a plurality of apertures extending from a bottom surface of the substrate layer to a top surface of the substrate layer, the apertures configured to transport moisture from the surface of the user, and
- wherein individual apertures overlie individual continuous portions of the adhesive layer;
- and
- collecting physiological data from the user.
