Breathpal. <\/em>A wearable respiration sensor. Simple<\/a>,<\/a> reliable<\/a>, easy<\/a>, useful<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breathing is essential for life, and the characteristics of the breathing carry important information on the condition of body and mind.
Reliable information on breathing characteristics can be helpful for pulmonary disease experts, but also for coaching on stress management, sports, and even for self-care to increase quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breathpal contains all that is needed to collect breathing patterns. It is an accurate and reliable sensor that delivers raw data, using Respiratory Inductive Plethysmography<\/em><\/a> (RIP). RIP is the non-intrusive measurement method used in many medical systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breathpal is complete!<\/strong>
Full day battery capacity, many days sample data storage, Time&Date stamps, and more! View Features<\/a> page!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What experts say on Breathpal: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We have evaluated Breathpal. It is a promising concept, where the system supplies clear and straightforward RIP and accelerometer data. Its measurement quality is very good. The device properties make it also very suitable for research and field tests since it is also can provide the “raw” data.”<\/span><\/em>
Dr.Ir. F.H.C. de Jongh (PhD), Pulmonary Physiologist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The data provided by Breathpal provides the user with one thing: Raw data. No more, no less. This simple fact provides ample opportunities to scientists in signal processing, as there is no hidden data and there are no pre-processing algorithms. A simple connection through a serial port allows the application, or any other signal processing software, to collect real-time data ready for export or live processing<\/span><\/em>.”
Pascal Keijzer, MSc, Technical Physician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Because of the simplicity and data export possibilities, this sensor can be used in other areas than breathing regulation alone. For example, I used the sensor for the detection of swallowing food.” <\/span><\/em>
Ir. Sigert Mevissen, Biomedical Engineer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We have used Breathpal in several research projects already. The raw data output makes the system great to work with. It gives the user full control over the data processing steps. Moreover, the personal support by the Breathpal team is fantastic. They were able to provide us with a version for new-borns.” <\/span><\/em>
Dr. Ir. Juliet Haarman, Biomedical Engineer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are using Breathpal to validate the accuracy of our own breathing detection algorithm on our physical product. So far the Breathpal has been exactly the type of product we need: reliable, accurate and easy to use. It’s so easy to wear the belt, do a measurement session and export all the data. I would definitively recommend this product to anyone who needs a good reference of the breathing motion of a human being.” <\/span><\/em>
