Signals

Four signal domains recorded together from the chest: seismic cardiography (SCG), acceleration, acoustics, and ECG.

Four signal domains

Seismic cardiography

SCG records the small vibrations of the chest wall that accompany the heartbeat.

Acceleration

Motion of the chest and torso, used to place cardiac events in a mechanical context.

Acoustics

Heart and lung sounds captured at the surface of the chest.

ECG

The electrical activity of the heart, recorded alongside the mechanical and acoustic channels.
