Abstract
Soft-polymer fibers allow strong conformal contact with the skin and are extremely sensitive for deformation, despite high propagation loss. This enables pulse wave velocities measurements. Blood pressure can then be inferred using the Moens-Kortweg model.Soft-polymer fibers allow strong conformal contact with the skin and are extremely sensitive for deformation, despite high propagation loss.
