Abstract
An auxiliary unit, adapted to be coupled to a mobile station comprising a basic element containing components necessary for data transmission, analyses and storage, as well as a sensor element containing a sensor suitable for the non-invasive measuring of a person'"'"'s bodily functions and the special electronics required by the sensor. This means that different kinds of non-invasive measurements, such as ECG, EEG, EMG, blood pressure and respiratory flow, can be taken by changing the mere sensor element.
