Abstract

A sensor device comprises a sensor (1) to be held against the wearer's skin. The sensor (1) is arranged on one side of a housing (2), and the housing is connected to a band (5) for mounting it to a body part, such as an arm or leg. Various stopper devices (10, 14, 20) are arranged on the side of the housing (2) and the band (5) that face the skin. The stopper devices improve static friction, thereby holding the housing (2) in place.
