Why the study?
Continuous and simultaneous monitoring of respiratory rate and heart rate is a key aspect across clinical, remote, and occupational settings.
Does a wearable device with embedded conductive textiles and an IMU accurately estimate respiratory rate and heart rate compared to a reference system in human subjects?

Supports textile-IMU wearables for vital signs; hypothesis-generating and requires larger validation before clinical use.
Does a wearable device with embedded conductive textiles and an IMU accurately estimate respiratory rate and heart rate compared to a reference system in human subjects?
A novel wearable system combining conductive textiles and an IMU demonstrates feasibility and low error for continuous, unobtrusive monitoring of heart and respiratory rates.
