Physiological Computing the bandwidth a and its by continuous, real-time monitoring of the user’s physiological traits and responses. This is especially interesting in a context of emotional assessme...
Article
Previous work by our group introduced a novel concept and sensor design for “off-the-person” ECG, for which evidence on how it compares against standard clinical-grade equipment has been largely missing. Our o...
Article
With the advent of wearable sensing and mobile technologies, biosignals have seen an increasingly growing number of application areas, leading to the collection of large volumes of data. One of the difficultie...

Chapter and Conference Paper
We present the ToBITas mobile Context-Aware application to control a mobile robot using electromyographic and accelerometric signals acquired from the user’s right-hand arm. The signals are acquired by means o...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Electrocardiographic (ECG) acquisition has evolved imensly over the last decade in particular with regards to sensing technology. From classical silver/silver chloride (Ag/AgCl) electrodes, to textile electrod...
Chapter and Conference Paper
A classical application of biosignal analysis has been the psychophysiological detection of deception, also known as the polygraph test, which is currently a part of standard practices of law enforcement agenc...
