Triboelectric wearable device and method for physiological monitoring

Abstract

A triboelectric wearable device (100) and a method for physiological monitoring, comprising: a support element (101); a first element (102) consisting of a first metallic contact (102a) and a second metallic contact (102b) between which is placed a dielectric layer, said first element (102) being able to be placed in contact with a wrist (50) of a user and bonded to the support element (101); a second element (103) overlapped and bonded to the first element (102) and to the support element (101). The triboelectric wearable device (100) further comprises an electronic interface (104) for acquiring and processing the signal generated by means of the triboelectric effect in the blood vessels of the user near the wrist (50), said electronic interface (104) being housed into the support element (101) and connected to the first metallic contact (102a) and to the second metallic contact (102b) of the first element (102).
