Abstract

A device for skin-contact biological measurement includes one or more electrodes to enable signal transmission through a skin contact and a control mechanism coupled to the one or more electrodes to adjust an electrode-to-skin impedance (ESI). The control mechanism is configured to implement the ESI adjustment using a thermal actuator.
