Advanced Pressure-Sending Wristband for Disease Detection Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine Pulse Diagnosis

This paper explores the integration of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) pulse diagnosis with modern sensor technology to develop a sophisticated wristband system for monitoring vital organ health. Leveraging the principles of TCM, the proposed system focuses on the “Three regions and nine indicators” method to accurately detect pulse variations at different wrist positions and depths. By utilizing a pressure sensor array that covers the Cun, Guan, and Chi pulse positions, the wristband aims to enhance diagnostic accuracy beyond conventional wearable technologies. The system incorporates advanced micro-electro-mechanical techniques to minimize size while maintaining functionality, enabling continuous health monitoring through a coplanar crossed sensing array. Additionally, the use of machine learning algorithms facilitates the analysis of pulse data to identify potential health issues related to the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and spleen. An accompanying mobile app provides real-time feedback and health insights, promoting proactive health management. This innovative approach merges TCM’s holistic diagnosis methods with cutting-edge technology to offer a powerful tool for early disease detection and health monitoring, potentially transforming the landscape of personal healthcare devices.
