SENSING OF A USER'S PHYSIOLOGICAL CONTEXT USING A COMPUTING DEVICE

摘要

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques and configurations for an apparatus for opportunistic measurements of user's physiological context. In one instance, the apparatus may comprise a work surface that includes one or more electrodes disposed on the work surface to directly or indirectly contact with user's portions of limbs, when the user's portions of limbs are disposed on the work surface to interact with the apparatus, to obtain one or more parameters of user's physiological context; and circuitry coupled with the electrodes to detect direct or indirect contact between the user's portions of limbs and the electrodes and on detection, collect the parameters of the user's physiological context while the direct or indirect contact is maintained. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

主权项

1. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one work surface that includes one or more electrodes disposed on the work surface to directly or indirectly contact with at least portions of limbs of a user, when the portions of limbs are disposed on the work surface, to obtain one or more parameters of physiological context of the user; and circuitry coupled with the electrodes to detect direct or indirect contact between the user's portions of limbs and the electrodes and on detection, collect the one or more parameters of the physiological context while the direct or indirect contact is maintained.
