Monitoring vital signs based on sensed changes to an electrical field
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- electronically receiving, by a computer system, data representing a signal generated at least in part by one or more sensors detecting a change in an electric field or an electric potential of a target spaced apart from the one or more sensors;
identifying, using the computer system and based at least in part on the data electronically received by the computer system, a recurring pattern in the data; and
determining, using the computer system and based at least in part on the data electronically received by the computer system, whether a deviation from the recurring pattern transgresses a threshold, the deviation comprising a subset of the data electronically received by the computer system.

Abstract
Methods and systems for monitoring a well-being of a target are disclosed. In a method embodiment, data representing a process electric potential signal is received by a computer system. The process electric potential signal may be generated at least in part by one or more electric potential sensors in response to the detection of a change in an electric field of a target spaced apart from the one or more electric potential sensors. The method may further include identifying, using the computer system and based at least in part on the data electronically received by the computer system, a recurring pattern in the received data. The method may also include determining, using the computer system and based at least in part on the received data, whether a deviation from the recurring pattern transgresses a threshold. The deviation may comprise a subset of the data electronically received by the computer system.

13. A system comprising:
-
a memory; and one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to, based on instructions contained in the memory; electronically receive data representing a signal generated at least in part by one or more sensors detecting a change in an electric field or an electric potential of a target spaced apart from the one or more sensors, identify, based at least in part on the data electronically received, a recurring pattern in the data representing a signal, and determine, based at least in part on the data electronically received, whether a deviation from the recurring pattern transgresses a threshold, the deviation comprising a subset of the data electronically received. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing a set of instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
-
electronically receiving data representing a signal generated at least in part by one or more sensors detecting a change in an electric field or electric potential of a target spaced apart from the one or more sensors; identifying, based at least in part on the data electronically received, a recurring pattern in the data representing a signal; and determining, based at least in part on the data electronically received, whether a deviation from the recurring pattern transgresses a threshold, the deviation comprising a subset of the data electronically received. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)
