title: Development of a cardiorespiratory monitoring system based on pressure change of aircushion.
abstract: Heartbeat and respiration are fundamental vital signs used for estimation of patient's status. In this study, we have proposed a simple method to monitor the heartbeat and respiration based on displacements of human body which occur due to periodic heartbeat and breathing.
