Abstract
Wearables play a significant part in the connected healthcare system. They provide continuous access to physiological signals of people, and thereby facilitating long-term analysis of signals. In this chapter, various wearables available for biomedical sensing and acquisition are discussed. The hardware design aspects of wearable devices for acquisition of electrocardiogram, electroencephalogram, photoplethysmogram, and bioacoustics signals are discussed. Various factors covering signal, human, economic, environmental, medical, and other critical factors that impact wearable designs are also covered. Brief introductions to textile wearables and contactless monitoring are also provided.
