DETERMINING PHYSIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ANIMAL
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a sensor having an array of electrodes for use in obtaining complex impedance data from a body part of an animal; and
a determinater that compares the complex impedance data with an empirical data model to determine a physiological parameter of the animal, the empirical data model including physiological parameter data versus complex impedance data value correspondence of the animal.

Abstract
A system, method and program product enable determining physiological characteristics of an animal. In one embodiment, the system includes a sensor having an array of electrodes for use in obtaining complex impedance data from a body part of an animal; and a determinater that compares the complex impedance data with an empirical data model to determine a physiological parameter of the animal, the empirical data model including physiological parameter data versus complex impedance data value correspondence of the animal.
