Abstract

The present study concerns a novel acceleration sensor built up using a bimetallic strip with one freely oscillating end. The strip consists of a magnetostrictive amorphous ribbon glued on a nonmagnetic metal ribbon. The sensor’s effectiveness is demonstrated for the case of chest wall displacements as resulting from cardiorespiratory activity. The cheap and easy-to-handle novel sensor offers multiple information on the so-called sleep apnea syndrome.
