| | Sintonizzati con il tuo battito!3 Novembre 2010 Swiss technology-transfer company CSEM created the final
prototype for their Pulsear device this year. A tiny unit embedded in
a regular earphone uses infrared signals to see how fast your heart is
beating. The result is displayed directly on your iPhone. With a grant
from the ESA Technology Transfer Programme’s ‘Transfer Demonstrator’
initiative, CSEM created the prototype based on technology developed
for ESA’s Long Term Medical Survey system. Swiss company CSEM has created the Pulsear device to monitor
ones heart rate while exercising. Pulsear uses a tiny unit embedded in
a regular earphone to see how fast the pulse is by sending the
infrared signals through the tissues in your ear. The result is shown
on an iPhone. Pulsear is based on space technology developed to
examine how astronauts will behave during long space voyages. Credits: CSEM | |
