eBP: An Ear-Worn Device for Frequent and Comfortable Blood Pressure Monitoring
We developed eBP to measure blood pressure from inside a user's ear aiming to minimize the measurement's impact on normal activities while maximizing its comfort level.
Technical Perspective: eBP Rides the Third Wave of Mobile Health
The automated blood pressure wearable system described in "eBP," by Nam Bui et al., is a sterling example of the third wave of mobile health tech to fill the preventative care gap.
In the June issue of Communications, Editor-in-Chief Andrew A. Chien suggested that ACM consider bestowing two A.M. Turing Awards per year. Reader reactions were thoughtful and provocative.
