Abstract: A conformable sensor which uses a flexible substrate (10), preferably a polyester strip is disclosed. The emitter (18) and detector (20) are mounted on one portion of the strip (10) with conductive traces (26,28,34,36) connecting to them. The second portion of the strip (10) is folded over to cover the emitter (18) and detector (20) and traces, with openings (65,66) for the emitter (18) and detector (20). A conductive coating is applied to the strip to provide shielding from electromagnetic interference. Preferably, a second portion of the strip (10), which folds over the first portion, also has a Faraday shield covering the opening over the detector (20).
