Abstract
The invention relates to a connector mechanism, a connector, an electronic device, a garment and a physiological sensor. The connector mechanism comprises a first connector part, which includes a first electrically conductive layer and a first magnetic layer, and a second connector part, which includes a second electrically conductive layer and a second magnetic layer, the first and the second magnetic layers being configured to provide a mechanical coupling between the first connector part and the second connector part based on the mutual magnetic attraction between the first and the second magnetic layers, and the first electrically conductive layer and the second electrically conductive layer being configured to provide an electrical connection between the first connector part and the second connector part based on said mutual magnetic attraction.
