Abstract

The system uses a flexible mattress (1) enclosing an electrically conducting mesh of insulated wires comprising a network of columns (2) over a network of rows (3). The two networks are spaced so that there is no contact between them when there is no weight or pressure on the mattress. Each line and column is connected into an end of a bunch of conductors which are connected to a data acquisition and programming unit (9). The mesh wires are interconnected at their crossing points by diodes (5). At the point where the diodes (5) are fixed the insulation is removed, the diodes being fixed by tags (13) around the bared wires and columns. The mesh conductors may be formed from an elastomer conductor material, or in copper or by serigraphy.
