How about someone lies on the side? Or when they are covered in blankets of different materials? Or the sensor getting misaligned during patient movement back and forth from places. Id instead believe that a truly wireless connection, with wearables, would be much more preferred than this. Having said that, this is quite cool and could be superb maybe for edge cases where contact with skin is impossible, burn victims, or undesirable like highly quarantined person maybe?

Useful for heart rate measurement? For sure! However, I doubt the disadvantage of "uncomfortable body attachment" of electrodes outweighs the diagnostic reliability of conventional 3-lead ECG measurement. For it to be usable in clinical settings, they would need to demonstrate good correlation for a broad range of ECG abnormalities, and that these are not confounded by body fat or variations in anatomical cardiac axis. It's a neat idea though, and I wish the developers success.

We’re now approaching a Star Trek sickbay reality. Noninvasive monitoring. Needs more beeps and moving graphs above the patient’s bed. 😏

But can it create the heartbeat sensor of MW2 Edit: Joking aside, would it help the motion problem to triangulate three signal points instead of just one?
