Patent attributes
A method for measuring health metrics of a user is provided. A base of an electronic device is attached to the skin of the user. A housing of the electronic device is attached to the base, such that (i) the housing is secured to the base, and (ii) a window of the housing is positioned outside an opening in the base. One or more sensors within the housing generates first physiological data associated with the health metrics of the user through the housing window and the base opening. Second physiological data associated with the health metrics of the user is generated using a set of electrodes positioned outside of the housing. The set of electrodes are coupled to the base, and the set of electrodes facilitate movement of electrical signals between the skin of the user and a sensor printed circuit board within the housing of the electronic device.
