The non contact electrode has been integrated into both a wearable ecg chest harness as well a eeg headband.
A low noise non contact capacitive cardiac sensor.
In this paper we summarize our recent work on a number of specific challenges in the development of non contact ecg sensors.
A low noise non contact capacitive cardiac sensor.
Further advances in non contact ecg sensors were reported by matthews and others 7 8.

Our non contact sensor avoids ohmic contact with skin altogether and operates by capacitive coupling capable of measuring eeg signals through hair or ecg signals through clothing.
The inverting feedback loop also cancels low frequency signals from the capacitive sensor and low frequency noise from a 0 to achieve stable operation.
There have been many attempts to use sensors that do not require gel but still rely on dry contact with the skin 1 2.
The noise analysis of the ilc3a can be divided into a few steps.
To address these problems a new class of miniature ultra low noise capacitive sensor that does not require direct contact to the skin and has comparable performance to gold standard ecg.
The development of sensitive non contact electric field sensors to measure weak bioelectric signals will be useful for the development of a number of unobtrusive health sensors.
In this contribution we report a compact low noise.
