Printed Respiratory Rate Sensors to Monitor Respiration Patterns
Thin flexible humidity-based sensors that mount inside a surgical mask. Battery-powered with IoT and cloud upload for sleep apnea, respiration tracking and long-hour monitoring.


What Are Printed Respiratory Rate Sensors?
Linepro has developed affordable thin flexible respiratory rate sensors that mount inside a surgical face mask. They diagnose disorders like sleep apnea without heavy costly equipment, using the humidity of breathing as the input signal.
Conductive inks are printed on a suitable substrate and placed in the mask. Exhaled breath holds more water than inhaled air, so as the sensor absorbs humidity its conductivity changes and the reader derives respiration rate at rest or during exercise.
