Abstract

The present invention features a wireless, remote monitor system for multiple, diverse sensors. A remote transceiver is equipped with one or more interchangeable sensors, each type of sensor being capable of providing a unique identity code to the base monitoring station. Multiple sensors may be piggybacked so as to monitor more than one condition substantially simultaneously. The inventive system includes routines which automatically recognize the sensors and then upload and execute one or more sensor-specific software routines. This quasi 'plug and play' approach overcomes problems where improper sensor inputs are made to a particular data analysis routine resulting in erroneous results. The inventive system is applicable to a wide variety of fields such as biomedical, athletics, security, etc. Each remote sensor included provisions for signal conditioning and data analysis. In addition, storage is provided at each remote mobile unit so that, in the event that the RF link is unavailable, the sensor data may be stored for later transmission once the communication link is reestablished.
