BioMEMS-based coding for secure medical diagnostic devices

Trustworthy and usable point-of-care solutions require not only effective disease diagnostic procedures to ensure delivery of rapid and accurate outcomes, but also lightweight privacy-preserving capabilities. In this paper, we present a Biomedical Microelectromachanical System (BioMEMS)-based sensor for portable, inexpensive smartphone-based biomarker detection. The biosensor presented here provides the ability for signal encryption at the physical sensor level to ensure patient's diagnostic confidentiality. Our results show that this design allow us to protect the samples measurements while accurately distinguish different test samples.
