Journal of mechanical science and technology, 25(2), 537-542. Drivers acquire more than 90% of visual information through road signs. However, the road signage along highways can cause driver discomfort and traffic accidents. Conducting experiments along a real highway may cause traffic accidents; therefore, obtaining accurate results from such experiments is difficult. BIOPAC Product: MP160

Relative safety of 4 weeks of blood flow‐restricted resistance exercise in young, healthy adults – Clark – 2011 – Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports – Wiley Online Library. Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports, 21(5), 653-662. This study evaluated the effect of 4 weeks of low-load resistance exercise with blood flow restriction (BFRE) on increasing strength in comparison with high-load resistance exercise (HLE), and assessed changes in blood, vascular and neural function.

Frequency Domain SpO2 Estimation Based on Multichannel Photoplethysmographic Measurements at the Sternum | SpringerLink. In World Congress on Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering, September 7-12, 2009, Munich, Germany (pp. 326-329). Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg. Estimating SpO2 from photoplethysmographic measurements at the sternum is a challenging task given the sternum’s very low perfusion. Reliable SpO2 estimation requires to specifically tackle the problem of very low SNR by simultaneously increasing the available information and reducing the noise. BIOPAC Products: TSD123AC, MP150
