Claim 7:
8. A system, comprising:
a wearable band that is wearable by a subject;
a measurement device configured to adjustably attach to the wearable band such that a position of the measurement device on the wearable band is adjustable, the measurement device comprising:
a hollow housing formed in a c-shape or a u-shape, the hollow housing comprising a chamber enclosed within the hollow housing;
an opening through an outermost wall of the housing;
a processing device disposed within the chamber;
an elastic coupling conductor within the chamber, wherein the elastic coupling conductor is configured to tilt in response to a change in an alignment between the wearable band and a wrist of the subject;
a sensor aligned with the opening and configured to take a measurement of a physiological characteristic of the subject, wherein:
the sensor is physically coupled to the elastic coupling conductor, wherein the sensor is tiltable on the elastic coupling conductor relative to the wearable band; and
the sensor is electronically coupled to the processing device via the elastic coupling conductor, the processing device configured to communicate, using a communication device, the measurement of the physiological characteristic of the subject to a device external to the measurement device; and

a user device communicatively coupled to the processing device or the sensor, wherein the user device comprises a user interface configured to communicate the measurement to the subject.
