摘要:
A system, method and device are described for detecting a heart rate. A sensing unit can have a skin-facing surface that is removably securable to a users skin surface and include at least one sensor positioned to acquire a bio-signal from the skin surface. A controller can be configured to capture a bio-signal stream using the at least one sensor and generate a preprocessed bio-signal stream by band-pass filtering the captured bio-signal stream with a predetermined passband. The controller can also be configured to determine, in a moving window, heartbeat signal portions when the preprocessed bio-signal stream has heartbeat impulse characteristics and determine the time between adjacent heartbeat signal portions to compute the heart rate.
