System and method for automatic sensor position recognition
First Claim
1. An automatic sensor position recognition system for recognizing pre-determined anatomical parts of a person'"'"'s body, the system comprising:
- a position recognition unit bearing a first identification including a first unique identifier for placement at pre-determined anatomical parts of the person'"'"'s body, the first unique identifier uniquely identifying the pre-determined part;
a sensor uniquely identified by a second unique identifier and having a communication unit, the sensor is configured todetect a physiological condition of a person at a location of the sensor and the first unique identifier of the position recognition unit, andtransmit the first and second unique identifiers and the detected physiological condition of the person; and
a data processing unit configured toreceive the first and second unique identifiers and the detected physiological condition of the person, andcorrelate the pre-determined position of the position recognition unit bearing the received first unique identifier with the location of the sensor bearing the received second unique identifier and the detected physiological condition of the person.

Abstract
An automatic sensor position recognition system including a position recognition unit located at pre-determined positions on a person'"'"'s body and bearing a unique identification; a sensor bearing a unique identification; a communication unit assigned to the sensor and being in communication with the position recognition unit and the sensor; a data processing unit in communication with the communication unit; and a database being in communication with the data processing system and comprising the correlation of the unique identification of the position recognition unit and the pre-determined position of the position recognition unit. The system provides an automatic association between sensors and body segments as well as means to obtain these associations.
