Abstract
Introduced here is a digital pill comprised of a capsule, an ingestible sensor, and a slot antenna. The ingestible sensor can be configured to generate a signal indicative of a characteristic of the living body in which the digital pill is located. Biometric data can be stored, at least temporarily, in a memory in the form of signal values. For example, the slot antenna may transmit biometric data to a computing device across a network on a periodic basis (e.g., every 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 60 minutes, etc.). Alternatively, the slot antenna may stream biometric data to a computing device across the network in real time.
