Description

Wearable health measuring device with clip mechanism Technical Field The present solution relates generally to an apparatus for measuring health related parameters of a user. Background For decades, athletes have been interested in their Heart Rate (HR) during exercise, and devices for personal HR monitoring have therefore evolved rapidly. With the development of sensor technology, devices with more intelligent measurement and analysis capabilities have become available to any consumer interested in their health and wellbeing. Motion-related measurement devices typically include a belt or band to receive physical signals directly from the user's chest, arm, or forehead, and then wirelessly transmit these signals to the user's watch or other device for further analysis or reporting. So-called active watches (or smart watches) are able to measure heart rate and other body signals directly from the wrist and to analyze the well-being and activity of the user by themselves. More wearable health measurement devices are entering the market. One example is a ring that measures body signals from a user's finger and transmits the measured data to an analysis device such as a mobile phone. These devices are limited in their possibilities for health related analysis and thus a wider view of the problem is required.
