Abstract

Eliminating all wires is the next technological challenge in making the electrocardiograph compact and wearable to the point where it can be used for continuous monitoring of mobile patients, athletes and soldiers in the field. In this paper the main challenges to overcome when removing wires are discussed, and emerging solutions of addressing them are presented. In addition, a novel top-level design integrating these emerging solutions is described. The design is currently being prototyped.
