SolunumWear: A smart textile system for dynamic respiration monitoring across various postures.

ABSTRACT: We introduce SolunumWear, a multi-sensory e-textile system designed for respiration in daily life settings, addressing the gap in continuous, real-world respiration event monitoring. Leveraging a textile pressure sensor belt to capture chest movements and a wireless data acquisition system, SolunumWear offers a promising solution for both medical and wellness applications. The system's efficacy was evaluated through a human study involving 10 healthy adults (six female and four male) across various breathing rates and postures, demonstrating a strong correlation (R value = 0.836) with the gold-standard system. The study highlights the system's computational and communication efficiencies, with latencies of approximately 4.84 s and 2.13 ms, respectively. These findings highlight the efficac
