Abstract
A system and method for sensing sleep abnormality in a user is disclosed. The system can include an accelerometer sensor in contact with the skin of the user to measure the deflection of the body during respiration and generate a respiration waveform. A controller receives the respiration waveform from the accelerometer sensor to determine a sleep abnormality measurement as a function of the respiration waveform.
Claims20
A sensor system for sensing a sleep abnormality in a user, the system comprising:
- an accelerometer sensor in contact with the skin of the user to measure a deflection of the body during respiration and generate a respiration waveform;
- a controller receives the respiration waveform from the accelerometer sensor to determine a sleep abnormality measurement as a function of the respiration waveform.
A method of detecting a sleep abnormality in a user comprising:
- attaching an accelerometer sensor in contact with the skin of the user to measure a deflection of the body during respiration;
- generating a respiration waveform from the accelerometer sensor;
- receiving a respiration waveform from the accelerometer sensor by a controller;
- and
- determining a sleep abnormality measurement as a function of the respiration waveform via the controller.
