Abstract :
Nowadays wearable sensors are drawing attention in biomedical field. Main reason for that is a continuous development in sensor technologies. These developments are in the form of smart sensors, sensors build textile etc, and also it includes advances in the technologies such as microcontroller and wireless. Wearable sensors are used to do continuous monitoring of parameters which are very much important in cardiovascular diseases such as heart pulse, temperature, respiration rate, oxygen rate, body posture etc. Focus on such sensors is given in this paper.
