Valencell’s biometric signal extraction
technology accurately measures heart rate
& breathing rate during aggressive
physical activity
This exemplary plot shows the heart rate and breathing rate for a study participant
executing a VO2max test on a treadmill, wearing a PerformTek-powered earbud (the DUT)
and a ECG and gas-exchange-analysis machine (the benchmark).
