Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to an electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring device embedded into the construct of a controller (e.g., video game controller, steering wheel etc.) to monitor a user's heart health and diagnose various conditions (e.g., AFib, tachycardia, bradycardia, etc.). The controller may comprise a set of electrodes including electrodes to contact the user's hands and one or more electrodes on the back of the controller that can be used to contact the user's extremities as a 3rd contact point to provide additional leads for higher accuracy ECG sensing. The set of electrodes may be positioned at locations on the controller where the user's hands are relatively stable, thus minimizing motion artifacts caused by muscular movement (thereby allowing for signal stability and longevity).
