Abstract
Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to determining cardiac physiological parameters. Specific embodiments concern an arrangement of apparatuses including a platform region configured and arranged with an area for the user to stand, a plurality of force sensors including sensor circuitry, and a processor circuitry. The force sensors provide a plurality of analog signals while the user is standing on the platform region. The processor circuitry is configured and arranged to determine cardiac physiological parameters of the user corresponding to a graphical representation of cardiac movements, by processing the analog signals, mitigating at least some effect on the analog signals attributable to postural sway of the user, and generating data indicative of the physiological parameters based on said processing of the analog signals and the mitigating of at least some of the effect on the analog signals attributable to postural sway of the user.
