Zusammenfassung:A measurement assembly of a personal health monitoring system for measuring the lung capacity of a person. In an embodiment, the measurement assembly includes a sensor assembly includes a sensor that is configured to sense the force of a fluid exhaled by the person onto the sensor and output a force measurement. In addition, the measurement assembly includes a control assembly coupled to the force sensing assembly, the control assembly configured to receive the force measurement from the sensor. Further, the measurement assembly includes a housing configured to support each of the sensor assembly and the control assembly. The sensor is disposed on an external surface of the housing.
