A device for measuring at least one periodic vital signal from an individual, intended to be attached to a safety apparatus of a vehicle so as to be arranged between the individual and the apparatus, the device comprising: a vibration sensor comprising: a stack of layers and including an active layer made of piezoelectric material and two contact electrodes arranged on at least one face of the active layer, a flexible support layer including a printed circuit comprising two electrical terminals, the support layer being intended to be arranged on the individual, an electrical connection layer, arranged between the stack of layers and the support layer, for connecting each contact electrode to an electrical terminal, an acoustic attenuation member intended to be arranged between the safety apparatus and the vibration sensor, the member being integral with the support layer and arranged above and spaced apart from the stack of layers.

The reliability of calculated bio-information of a subject is determined. When the reliability of the bio-information is determined to be high, the bio-information is output, whereas when the reliability of the bio-information is determined to be low, the bio-information is not output. Thus, among the calculated bio-information, only the bio-information of high reliability may be output, or distinctive display may be performed depending on the reliability, whereby it is possible to provide a bio-information output device and the like capable of easily determining bio-information of high reliability.

A system for dynamic registration of autonomy using augmented reality can include an augmented reality system, an imaging system, a measuring system, and a computer system. The augmented reality system can be configured to display an augmented representation. The imaging system can be configured to image an anatomical feature of the patient and can generate anatomical imaging data. The measuring system can be configured to measure an anatomical movement of the patient and can generate an anatomical movement data. The computer system can be configured to receive the anatomical imaging and positional data and the anatomical movement data, generate the augmented representation based on the anatomical imaging data, associate the augmented representation with the anatomical movement data, render the augmented representation on the augmented reality system, and selectively update the augmented representation based on the anatomical movement data.

Systems and methods described herein use pairing to associate a wireless sensor with a patient monitoring device such as a bedside patient monitor or a mobile device. A signal emitted by a patient monitoring device can be detected by a wireless sensor. The wireless sensor can be associated with the detected signal and pair the wireless sensor with the patient monitoring device. The wireless sensor can be configured to enter into a patient parameter sensing mode of operation after the association of the wireless sensor with the patient monitoring device.

One or more radar sensors can be used to monitor patients in a variety of different environments and embodiments. In one embodiment, radar sensors can be used to monitor a patient's breathing, including monitoring of tidal volume, chest expansion distance, breathing rate, etc. In another embodiment, a patient position can be monitored in a patient bed, which can be used as feedback for control of bladders of a patient bed. Additional embodiments are described herein.
