Can a PDA-based nonintrusive monitoring system accurately measure physiological signals to estimate stress states?
A PDA-based nonintrusive monitoring system can successfully acquire physiological signals from the finger to estimate human stress levels.
We have developed nonintrusive type stress monitoring system based on the PDA (Personal Digital Assistance). This system separated sensing part of the physiological signal and estimating part of the stress states. First, sensing part consists of four electrodes such as one PPG electrode, two EDA electrodes and one SKT electrode. Sensing part was able to measuring heart rate, skin temperature variation, and electrodermal activity, all of which can be acquired without discomfort from finger. Second, estimating part was developed and verified for physiological signal database that was obtained from multiple subjects by presenting stress stimuli that were elaborated to effectively induce stress. This system is a useful measure of human stress in portabel device as PDA and smart phone.
