Wearable electrochemical sensors for monitoring performance athletes [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2011
Nowadays, wearable sensors such as heart rate monitors and pedometers are in common use. The use of wearable systems such as these for personalized exercise regimes for health and rehabilitation is particularly interesting. In particular, the true potential of wearable chemical sensors, which for the real-time ambulatory monitoring of bodily fluids ...
