21. A system comprising a sensor unit for detecting a biological signal of a user, the sensor unit comprising:
a circuit board comprising a terminal and a sensor coupled to the terminal, wherein the sensor is configured to detect the biological signal of the user;
an electrically insulating material disposed over at least a portion of the terminal;
a first conductive unit disposed (i) over a first side of the circuit board and (ii) over at least a portion of the electrically insulating material;
a second conductive unit disposed on top of a second side of the circuit board, wherein the first side of the circuit board and the second side of the circuit board are different; and
a bed device, wherein the sensor unit is integrated into the bed device, and wherein the bed device is selected from the group consisting of a mattress, a mattress cover, and a bed frame.
