Abstract

Nowadays, automotive companies are focused in improving road traffic safety. For that, not only the vehicle performance is improved but also the driver behavior is monitored. This could be done in many ways. One of them is to monitor a specific physiological parameter using a biodevice. That device should be reliable enough to use in a very noisy environment like a vehicle is. Furthermore, because long-term monitoring is required,any invasive and annoying method should be avoided. Therefore, an electrical bioimpedance device capable of monitoring driver ventilation using several textiles electrodes has been designed and implemented ; Peer Reviewed ; Postprint (published version)
