Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 18:
19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions which when executed by a processor perform steps of:
generating, by an electric field generator, an electric field around a desired area of detection that includes a body being monitored, the electric field generator comprising an oscillator oscillating at a frequency; and
detecting, by a demodulator, a change in a frequency of the generated electric field, and wherein the detecting comprises analyzing an output of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) coupled to a sample-and-hold circuit configured to sample an output of the electric field generator;
wherein characteristics of the body being monitored cause the change in the frequency of the generated electric field around the desired area of detection.
