Abstract : A remote controlled physiological data monitoring system was designed an built to be used on the Aerospace Medical Research Laboratory Dynamic Environment Simulator (DES), a sophisticated human centrifuge. The system grew out of the necessity to have a dependable and accurate means of monitoring physiological signals from subjects in a stressed environment like that afforded by the DES. The monitoring system is a 16 channel, hardwire physiological data transmission system capable of conditioning signals from a wide variety of sensors and amplifying them to a standard plus or minus 5 volt peak level for further processing or recording. The system is capable of self-calibration. It may be manually or computer operated. While built specifically for operation on a centrifuge, this monitoring system can be used in most kinds of experimental environments where remote controlled monitoring is advantageous. (Author)
