Causal-effect structure transformation based on hierarchical representation for biomedical sensing
In general, understanding causality among components in a target system, including a human body, is quite effective and efficient solution since utilisation of the causality helps predicting future system condition, making correct diagnosis and so forth. As for focusing on biomedical sensing, the causality among vital signals obtained from sensors built in measurement equipment should be ...

Peloton launches a $90 forearm-worn heart-rate monitor with LED indicators
Peloton has just launched a new forearm-worn heart-rate band that will replace the company’s current chest-strap monitor. The $90 heart-rate monitor (HRM) uses optical sensors rather than the electrodermal ones found on the chest strap it will soon replace. Meant for use with the Peloton suite of exercise equipment, the original HRM retailed for $50 and is now being sold for ...

The evolution of photoplethysmography (PPG) within smart devices
As a technology, photoplethysmography (PPG) has been explored for almost a century, but it is only in the last few years that it has had a broader application beyond specialised medical settings. That has generally been driven by the evolution of smartphones, smartwatches and even smaller wearable devices such as smart rings. PPG is most commonly used in pulse oximetry in clinical settings ...

The Role of Chx10 Neurons in Global Motor Arrest
A recent study by Goni-Erro et al (2023) in Nature Neuroscience has shed light on a fascinating phenomenon: the neural control of global motor arrest. From the cessation of goal-directed actions to a broader motor arrest in response to fear or environmental cues, this complex behavior involves an intricate set of neuronal pathways. This recent study reveals that the activation of ...
