SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OBTAINING BODILY FUNCTION MEASUREMENTS USING A MOBILE DEVICE
First Claim
1. A mobile device for obtaining at least one bodily function measurement, comprising:
- an outer body sized to be portable for a user;
a processor contained within the outer body;
a plurality of sensors physically coupled to the outer body for obtaining data accessible by the processor;
wherein one or more of the sensors is configured to obtain a first measurement indicative of blood volume in response to a user action;
wherein one or more of the sensors is configured to obtain a second measurement indicative of heart electrical activity in response to the user action; and
wherein the processor is configured to facilitate generation of a blood pressure measurement based on the first measurement and the second measurement.

Abstract
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for obtaining at least one bodily function measurement are presented. A mobile device includes an outer body sized to be portable for user, a processor contained within the outer body, and a plurality of sensors physically coupled to the outer body. The sensors are configured to obtain a first measurement indicative of blood volume and a second measurement indicative of heart electrical activity in response to a user action. A blood pressure measurement is determined based on the first measurement and the second measurement. The sensors also include electrodes where a portion of a user'"'"'s body positioned between the electrodes completes a circuit and a measurement to provide at least one measure of impedance associated with the user'"'"'s body. A hydration level measurement is determined based on the measure of impedance.
