Non-contact sensors monitor breathing and detect presence, even through walls

Oslo, Norway, 28 April 2015 – Novelda, a developer and manufacturer of adaptive smart sensors, today announced two sensor modules for detecting human presence and monitoring respiration, both based on its proprietary XeThru technology. These can detect presence just from the chest movement while breathing, and measure both the rate and depth of breathing, allowing breathing patterns to be tracked in real-time. Deploying its advanced XeThru technology, which uses radio waves, rather than infrared, ultrasound or light, allows these modules to ‘see through’ a variety of objects including lightweight … Read More → "Non-contact sensors monitor breathing and detect presence, even through walls"
