Description

The biosignalsplux piezoelectric Respiration (PZT) sensor is an entry-level and affordable solution for basic respiration data acquisition. This sensor consists of a wearable chest-belt with an integrated localized sensing element that measures displacement variations caused by the volume changes of the thorax or abdomen during respiratory cycles (inhaling/exhaling).

The elastic chest-belt can be adjusted in length to be applicable on different anatomies (e.g. male and/or female), body locations (e.g. thorax and/or abdomen), and thorax/abdomen circumferences. Typical applications of this sensor include respiration monitoring to determine respiration cycles, rates, relative amplitudes, and other features.
