Research abstract
In Phase II Sarcos Research Corporation will continue the development of a non-invasive pneumothorax sensor. The sensor will in addition measure both heart rate and breathing rate. The device will be hand-held, have low power consumption and RFemissions. The heart rate and breathing rate modes can be made with no physical contact with the body. In Phase II, we have developed an efficient coupler, developed a conceptual approach, completed animal testing of the approach and proposed a Phase IIdevelopment schedule.
