Abstract
Aspects are generally directed to systems and methods that integrate contactless electric field detectors to measure biophysical signals generated by a body. In one example, a biophysical sensing system includes a sensing assembly including an array of contactless electric field detectors, each of the contactless electric field detectors being configured to sense a corresponding component of an electric field generated by a body, a control system to receive sensor data indicative of the components of the electric field sensed by each of the contactless electric field detectors, the control system being configured to generate an estimate of the electric field based on the sensor data, and a feedback system coupled to at least the control system, the feedback system including at least one feedback interface, the feedback system being configured to operate the feedback interface to provide feedback based on the estimate of the electric field.
