  • Abstract
    In our society, we cannot avoid facing the problem of burdening the huge stress which occurs in our daily life. It is very dangerous if people under the colossal pressure all the time because it may lead to diseases. There are plenty of ways can help people to reduce the stress condition and as common sense, deep breath is one of the ways. Because people cannot notice the respiration condition all the time in daily life, a wearable respiration sensor is needed to help people to monitor the respiration condition. A sensor which is a kind of polymer sheet used in the experiment and from which get the information we need. According to the results of the experiment, the respiration rate, the relationship between output of the voltage and ventilation, the method separating the status of people including sitting, standing, walking and sleeping was known. These consequences have already supplied enough information help to judge the condition of the subjects and evaluate whether they had any problems.
