Patent attributes
A mobile electrocardiogram (ECG) device is described, comprising an electrode assembly comprising electrodes, wherein the electrode assembly senses heart-related signals when in contact with a body of a user, and produces electrical signals representing the sensed heart-related signals. The mobile ECG device further comprises a converter assembly electrically connected to the electrode assembly, configured to convert the electrical signals to a modulated signal, wherein the modulated signal carries the electrical signals representing the sensed heart-related signals. The mobile ECG device further comprises a transmitter that transmits the modulated signal wirelessly to a computing device. The mobile ECG device further comprises a light-emitting device to facilitate an optimal placement of the electrode on the body of the user. The mobile ECG device further comprises a housing containing the electrode assembly, the converter assembly, the transmitter, and the light-emitting device.
