Abstract :
It seems as if many of us are getting used to the idea of wearing sensors, whether they are counting the number of steps we take each day with an iPhone-connected pedometer or keeping track of heart rate while we are doing an exercise routine or out riding a bicycle. That´s probably good preparation, because a new generation of wearable sensors and smart textiles are coming to the fore to provide extended biomedical monitoring of heart, brain, muscle, and other physiological activity.
