Transforming Remote Research with Real-Time, Non-Invasive Respiration Data Collection
COPENHAGEN (November 13, 2024) – iMotions is thrilled to release the Webcam Respiration module — a pioneering tool that enables non-contact, remote respiration monitoring through any standard webcam. This addition to the Remote Data Collection platform offers researchers in fields like consumer neuroscience, psychology, and education research a scalable, non-invasive solution to monitor participant respiration without needing physical respiration belts or lab environments.
Integrating seamlessly into iMotions’ remote research environment, this module allows researchers to capture multimodal data, enhancing studies with the addition of physiological insights in real-world, remote settings.
This innovation leverages iMotions’ state-of-the-art technology to track subtle chest movements, producing respiration cycle data with an accuracy researchers have traditionally expected from lab-bound methods. It’s a major step in making comprehensive biometric research more accessible and adaptable, enabling simultaneous analysis of eye tracking, facial expressions, and now respiration data across diverse and geographically dispersed participant groups.
Key features of the Webcam Respiration Module include:
- Multimodal Research Capabilities: Synchronize respiration with other remote metrics such as eye tracking and facial expression, all within the same platform.
- Enhanced Data Quality: Robust algorithms provide high-fidelity respiration data while accounting for variations in posture and environment, producing consistent and reliable results.
- Proven Accuracy: Comprehensive lab validation shows that the module closely aligns with traditional respiration belts, achieving reliable data capture across varied conditions and movements.
This addition further expands iMotions’ Remote Data Collection suite, making biometric research more flexible and inclusive. By combining convenience with validated accuracy, the Webcam Respiration module supports global-scale studies, allowing researchers to gather data from diverse participants in real-world environments.
