Zusammenfassung:The disclosure provides sensors and methods for measuring movement of breast tissue during activity. The sensor system includes a first sensor for placement on a sternum of a user, the first sensor comprising a first accelerometer operable to generate acceleration data indicative of acceleration of a torso of the user along a reference x-axis, y-axis and/or z-axis; a second sensor operatively connected to the first sensor for placement on breast tissue of the user, the second sensor comprising a second accelerometer operable to generate acceleration data indicative of acceleration of breast tissue; and a microprocessor operatively connected to the first and second sensors and configured to use the acceleration data from the first sensor and the second sensor to determine a magnitude of breast tissue acceleration relative to the torso of the user along the reference x-axis, y-axis and/or z-axis. 本公开提供一种用于测量活动期间乳房组织运动的传感器和方法。该传感器系统包括置于用户的胸骨上的第一传感器,该第一传感器包括第一加速度计,该第一加速度计能操作以产生指示用户的躯干沿着参考x轴、y轴和/或z轴的加速度的加速度数据;第二传感
