ADInstruments Pty Ltd Releases Human Wireless Telemetry System Based on Zephyr Technology BioHarness
The BioHarness Telemetry System combines state-of-the-art technologies from two world-leading companies: Zephyr™ Technology Ltd and ADInstruments Pty Ltd.
The system features a lightweight belt-like garment utilizing patented Zephyr technology, developed in conjunction with US Special Operations, NASA Ames Research Center and Stanford University. The software component, ADInstruments LabChart software, used in leading research and teaching labs, provides powerful data acquisition and analysis capabilities with the aid of the LabChart BioHarness Extension.
The BioHarness Telemetry System is ideal for a wide range of applications
including research, teaching, sports medicine, exercise physiology and
defense/military exercises. BioHarness built-in sensors measure a range of
human physiological signals including ECG, breathing wave, heart rate, skin
temperature, posture, acceleration and activity.
BioHarness recording range of up to 100 meters allows real-time wireless data acquisition with ADInstruments LabChart software. Alternatively, the system can be utilized in data logging mode for remote monitoring of data. Logged data can be imported to LabChart for Windows platform via USB. The USB rechargeable battery allows up to eight hours of continuous data to be recorded.
ADInstruments LabChart software, with BioHarness extension is used to record up to 17 signals in real time. An additional 15 channels are available for calculations and analysis. Enhanced data recording and specialized analysis can be performed using ADInstruments powerful LabChart Pro software with LabChart Modules.
"The BioHarness Telemetry System based on Zephyr's technology ties in with our mission to make the goals of today's researchers and educators easier to achieve. The wireless nature of the BioHarness, with its comprehensive data streams, and the comfort offered by the smart-fabric strap makes the device an excellent addition to our LabChart data acquisition software. The system will help us remain the system of choice for thousands of researchers and educators worldwide," says Graham Milliken, CEO of ADInstruments.
