Skin temperature, sleep, and vigilance [PDF]
A large number of studies have shown a close association between the 24-hour rhythms in core body temperature and sleep propensity. More recently, studies have have begun to elucidate an intriguing association of sleep with skin temperature as well. The present chapter addresses the association of sleep and alertness with skin temperature. It discusses

Multifunctional electronic skin with a stack of temperature and pressure sensor arrays [PDF]
This paper presents multifunctional electronic skin (e-Skin) with a stack of pressure and temperature sensors arrays. The pressure sensor layer comprises of an 8x 8 array of capacitive sensors using soft elastomers as the dielectric medium and the ...

Direct observations of Skin-Bulk SST variability [PDF]
Skin sea-surface temperatures from the first Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR) are compared with coincident bulk temperatures from the Tropical Atmosphere Ocean (TAO) moored buoy array in the equatorial Pacific Ocean.

Increase of skin temperature prior to parturition in mares [PDF]
Prediction of impending foaling is highly desirable as early intervention may improve mare and foal outcomes. However, monitoring the peripartum mare is a time-consuming challenge for breeders and many foaling prediction systems have limitations ...

Monitoring changes in skin temperature associated with exercise in horses on a water treadmill by use of infrared thermography [PDF]
Infrared thermography (IRT) was used to assess surface temperature change as an indirect measure of muscle activity and exercise associated changes in blood flow in the working hind limb muscles of horses (n¼7) undergoing water tread mill exercise. Three

Pressure and temperature sensitive e-skin for in situ robotic applications [PDF]
E-skin with physical sensing capability has attracted considerable interest towards practical applications in soft robotics, human–machine interfaces, and wearable health monitoring. However, the development of a multimodal sensing platform with multiple

On Methods of measuring Skin Temperature [PDF]
For the measurement of the temperature of exposed skin surfaces, we have reached the conclusion that the most accurate instrument is a radiation thermopile suitably screened from the effects of wind. As the thermopile does not actually touch the skin it does not interfere with the cutaneous circulation; neither does it hinder the heat-loss from the ...

Skin Temperature in Hot Environment
It has been suggested that the immersion of subjects into a hot water bath (Bath Method) may be useful and simple method for testing human heat tolerance. It is probable that the bath method may fail to evaluate valid heat tolerance because of the forced uniformization of skin temperature.
