Customizable data collection is essential in research, especially when working across different fields and study types. With Fibion Flash, researchers gain full control over their data settings, from sensor selection to sampling frequency and measurement range, enabling high-quality, tailored data collection. This versatility supports an array of studies, from clinical trials and health monitoring to sports science and behavioral research.
Key Features of Fibion Flash’s Customizable Data Collection
Fibion Flash offers several advanced data collection features that can be adapted to fit any research need:
- 9-Axis Motion Sensing: Equipped with a high-precision 9-axis motion sensor, Fibion Flash captures detailed movement data, suitable for studies requiring robust activity tracking.
- HRV and Heart Rate Monitoring:
- With options for heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate tracking, the device enables accurate measurement of cardiovascular metrics.
- These features are crucial in stress and recovery studies, cardiovascular health research, and general wellness monitoring.
- Adjustable Sampling Frequencies and Measurement Ranges:
- The sampling frequency can be modified for different data needs, reaching high frequencies to capture fast movements (e.g., limb movements in sports) and lower frequencies to extend battery life for studies requiring slower movement tracking.
- Accelerometer range options from ±2G to ±16G allow researchers to choose the best measurement range, providing flexibility for both sensitive motion and high-impact activity tracking.
Fibion Flash‘s high customizability ensures accurate, relevant data collection for research groups with varying protocols and focus areas, from fine-tuned sleep studies to dynamic sports monitoring.
