Follow the procedure on this site to record and measure change in heart rate (ECG) from a human after immersing in cold water. Next, design an experiement to identify the exact stimulus that evokes the change in heart rate (in beats per minute or BPM).
Subject will submerge face in cold water during breath holding (apnea).

Projection-based virtual reality is a powerful immersive medium that makes it easy to utilize VR for research and training. With unobtrusive wireless sensing technology, researchers can easily measure physiological and behavioral responses.
You Will Learn To:
• Understand key principles of combing virtual reality + physiological data recording
• Mark events from the simulation into the physiological record
• Access physiological data in the VR environment for biofeedback and control
• Set up a projection-based VR simulation room
• Analyze the resulting data
