Biosensor and Data Acquisition Lab. 3 credits, 4 contact hours

Catalog description

Prerequisites: BME 210 and BME 301 . Laboratory exercises involve projects at all levels of a medical device system from sensors to data acquisition and data processing. The course will introduce measurements for different sensors with Biopac Amplifiers and Arduino Microprocessors. Circuits are constructed to condition the signals from sensors and convert them into a format that can be displayed or acquired into a computer. The final projects help to develop the skills to integrate various parts of a medical device system, collect and analyze data and troubleshoot a device.
