<p>A movement or activity sensor 12, 17, 23 configured to register movement of a subject body during certain activity modes, such as during sleep episodes, and to relay movement data to a receiver collector and recorder 27 for storage and later analysis of movement, such as sleep, patterns or characteristics. Sensors could be incorporated variously in a support mattress, upholstery or cushion 11, mattress cover 15, bed linen 16 or occupant body apparel or garment 21, with an umbilical cable or local radio link to a remote receiver, data collector and interpreter 27. Feedback loading or displacement to impact upon sleep in response to measurement assessment could be contrived, such as through electro-mechanical input transducer, temperature or humidity conditioning, or ventilation. In an embodiment a conductive carbon impregnated layer rubber mat sensor 41 is used, along with micro mechanical electro-magnetic sensors. In embodiments the sensors can be accelerometers or conductive rubber sensors.</p> |
