Accelerometer overview

Through this short block design it is possible to process the signals that come from a 3-axes accelerometer. Features such as a low-pass filter's cutoff frequency control and number of samples to be stored by the DAQ have also been implemented. Although quite simple, the VI has been succesfully tested and its high performance has been demonstrated. Furhter research will surely lead to the use of several 1-axis accelerometer devices to perform as heart-beat detectors; thus avoiding the need for ECG that work by reading electric pulses, as the amount of information provided by these is not always really useful, but expensive. Accelerometer based devices would provide a low-cost heart-beat monitoring system that is capable of providing basic information, this means, no more than the often necesary for general purpose patient monitoring.

Hello there,

 

Thank you so much for your project submission into the NI LabVIEW Student Design Competition. It's great to see your enthusiasm for NI LabVIEW! Make sure you share your project URL with your peers and faculty so you can collect votes for your project and win. Collecting the most "likes" gives you the opportunity to win cash prizes for your project submission. If you or your friends have any questions about how to go about "voting" for your project, tell them to read this brief document (https://forums.ni.com/t5/Student-Projects/How-to-Vote-for-LabVIEW-Student-Design-Projects-doc/ta-p/3...). You have until July 15, 2011 to collect votes!

 

I'm curious to know, what's your favorite part about using LabVIEW and how did you hear about the competition? Great work!!

 

Good Luck, Liz in Austin, TX.
