1. A wavy physiological signal collecting device, comprising:

  • a wavy flexible electrode, comprising a flexible panel and a plurality of flexible protrusions each of which is arranged on the flexible panel for converting a human body pressure applied thereto to a tensile force;

    wherein the flexible protrusions are respectively spacedly arranged on an upper surface and a lower surface of the flexible panel to form a panel of the wavy flexible electrode, a spacing area is defined between two adjacent flexible protrusions;

    each flexible protrusion located on the upper surface corresponds to a spacing area between two adjacent flexible protrusions arranged on the lower surface, and each spacing area located on the upper surface corresponds to a flexible protrusion located on the lower surface;

    the flexible protrusion and the spacing area are in one-to-one correspondence in corresponding areas on the upper surface and the lower surface of the flexible panel;

    a tensile force sensor arranged in the flexible panel for generating an electrical signal according to the tensile force; and

    a signal processing unit configured for processing the electrical signal to obtain a corresponding human body physiological signal;

    wherein a cross-sectional view of each of the flexible protrusions is a curved surface, and curved surfaces of the flexible protrusions located on the upper surface cooperating with curved surfaces of the flexible protrusions located on the lower surface to form a sinusoid symmetrically centered on the flexible panel; and

    the tensile force sensor is only arranged in the spacing area between two adjacent flexible protrusions.
