The Trigno
TM
Personal Monitor is an EMG and physiological moni-
toring device intended for biofeedback and research applications.
Each EMG sensor has a built-in triaxial accelerometer, a typical
transmission range of 40 m and a rechargeable battery typically last-
ing 7 hours. The system is capable of either logging data internally or
streaming it to EMGworks
®
. The unit communicates with 16 Trigno
sensors (resulting in 64 data channels), as well as logging GPS infor-
mation and internal 3 DOF accelerometer data which has 4 select-
able ranges (±1.5g, ±4g, ±6g, ±9g). Full triggering features further
expand the possibility for integration with additional measurement
technologies. The Trigno Personal Monitor is part of the Trigno
EMG System family.
The Personal Monitor can be used in either of two operational modes:
1) Mobile Monitoring and Datalogging
The device acts as a wearable, battery powered receiver for data from
wireless sensors (as well as the optional GPS) and stores these data
in on-board memory. The data may be later downloaded for post-
collection analysis.
