METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CAPACITIVE TOUCH PANEL BASED BIOSIGNAL MEASUREMENT

Many capacitive sensing based biosignal measurements methods exist, which are generic as they do not personalize biosignal measurement. Further, are do not provide device agnostic solutions. A method and system for capacitive touch panel based biosignal measurement is provided. The method senses a change in raw capacitance value of a capacitive touch panel. However, unlike existing methods that directly utilize the raw signal for biosignal measurements, the method disclosed derives a normalized signal by normalizing a raw signal corresponding to the change in raw capacitance of the capacitive touch panel. The normalization considers inter-relationships between a plurality of variables that affect the raw capacitance value such as a set of device specific parameters associated with the capacitive touch panel of the device, a set of ethnographic parameters, and metadata associated with the subject. Thus, method provides higher accuracy in biosignal measurement using capacitive touch panel based devices by personalizing the biosignal measurements.
