PHYSIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENT DEVICE OR WEARABLE DEVICE INTERFACE SIMULATOR AND METHOD OF USE
First Claim
1. A physiological measurement device or wearable device interface simulator, comprising:
- a) a frame;
b) a plurality of surfaces distributed within the frame; and
c) for each surface, a surface actuator linking the surface to the frame, wherebyi) forces applied by the surfaces to the subject, andii) the position of the surfaces relative to each other and relative to the subjectcan be modulated independently of each other, thereby measuring a physiological feature of the subject or simulating a wearable device interface.

Abstract
A physiological measurement device or wearable device simulator includes a frame and a plurality of surfaces distributed within the frame. For each surface, a surface actuator links the surface of the frame. At least one of: i) force or position imparted by the surface on a physiological feature of a subject by the surface actuator; and ii) the force imparted by the physiological feature of the subject on the surface, can be employed to modulate the positions of the surfaces relative to each other independently of the forces imparted by or on those surfaces, thereby measuring the physiological feature of the subject or simulating a wearable device interface.

22. A method for measuring a physiological feature of a subject or simulating an interface of a wearable device, comprising the steps of:
-
a) placing a plurality of surfaces against a subject, at least a portion of the surfaces each being linked to a frame by a surface actuator; and b) modulating independently of each other the i) forces applied by the surfaces to the subject, and ii) the position of the surfaces relative to each other and relative to the subject, to thereby measure a physiological feature of the subject or simulate an interface of a wearable device. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
