Pison Technology Wearable Sleep Monitor Biopotential Patent Application
Summary
Pison Technology, Inc. filed US Patent Application US20260096731A1 with the USPTO on October 3, 2024 (Application No. 18905612), published April 9, 2026. The application covers a wearable device configured to be worn on a user's arm during sleep, equipped with multiple electrodes to obtain biopotential signals from the arm, and a processor that analyzes biopotential data to determine sleep characteristics and generate user outputs. The named inventors are Michael Kowalczyk, Megan Blackwell, Samuel J Karnes, Jonathon Farringdon, Tu Vue, Dexter Ang, and David Cipoletta. CPC classifications span physiological measurement (A61B 5/0205), sleep monitoring (A61B 5/4809–A61B 5/4815), and health informatics (G16H 15/00, G16H 20/30).
“The system also may include a processor configured to analyze biopotential data derived from the biopotential signals to determine one or more characteristics relating to sleep of the user, and generate an output based on the one or more characteristics relating to the sleep of the user.”

Abstract
Systems and methods for biometric analysis are described. In some embodiments, a system may include a wearable device configured to be worn on a portion of an arm of a user while the user sleeps. The wearable device may include a plurality of electrodes disposed on an interior of the wearable device and configured to obtain biopotential signals from the user's arm. The system also may include a processor configured to analyze biopotential data derived from the biopotential signals to determine one or more characteristics relating to sleep of the user, and generate an output based on the one or more characteristics relating to the sleep of the user.
