Claims20
An apparatus for measuring a physiological signal of a vehicle driver, the apparatus comprising:
- a conductive fabric electrode coated on a target object within a vehicle and detecting a physiological current of a driver when it comes in contact with the driver;
- and
- a signal generating unit generating an electrical signal corresponding to the physiological current.
A vehicle steering wheel coated with a first conductive fabric electrode with which the driver's left hand comes in contact and a second conductive fabric electrode, with which the driver's right hand comes in contact, separated from the first conductive fabric electrode, the vehicle steering wheel comprising:
- a signal generating unit detecting a physiological current of the driver through the first and second conductive fabric electrodes to generate a physiological electrical signal of the driver corresponding to the physiological current.
