A consumer electronics product whose external housing has a wall with an opening formed therein, and where a physiological sensor electrode body is positioned in the opening so that a top surface of the body comes into contact with the user's skin. The bottom surface of the electrode body is positioned inside the housing. The electrode body has a light pipe formed therein, one end in the top surface and another end in the bottom surface. A PPG sensor emitter/receiver is positioned inside the housing, close to the another end of the light pipe, and whose active surface is to emit/receive light into/from the another end of the light pipe. The structure thus embodies a combined physiological sensor electrode and PPG sensor assembly which is more compact, thereby enabling more design freedom in the consumer electronics product. |
