A device for wireless intraoral forces monitoring is presented. Miniaturized strain gauge sensors are used for the measurements of forces applied by tongue and lips. A sensor interface IC is able to multiplex among four sensors and a low energy transmission module, equipped with an ARM Cortex–M0 core, is used for signal elaboration and remote wireless data transmission using Bluetooth® Low Energy standard protocol. The main novelty rely in the dynamic correction of the output corrupted by the prestrain issue. Moreover, the device shows a reduced dimension and the ability to transmit data wirelessly, without the use of external cables normally used in state-of-the-art intraoral monitoring devices.

Abstract
A device for wireless intraoral forces monitoring is presented. Miniaturized strain gauge sensors are used for the measurements of forces applied by tongue and lips. A sensor interface IC is able to multiplex among four sensors and a low energy transmission module, equipped with an ARM Cortex–M0 core, is used for signal elaboration and remote wireless data transmission using Bluetooth® Low Energy standard protocol. The main novelty rely in the dynamic correction of the output corrupted by the prestrain issue. Moreover, the device shows a reduced dimension and the ability to transmit data wirelessly, without the use of external cables normally used in state-of-the-art intraoral monitoring devices.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
