Overview EDA/GSR (Electrodermal Activity) BIOPAC BIONOMADIX WIRELESS PPG and EDA Amplifier

BIOPAC BIONOMADIX WIRELESS PPG and EDA Amplifier

BIOPAC BIONOMADIX 2CH GSR/EDA Amplifier
  • BIOPAC BIONOMADIX 2CH GSR/EDA Amplifier

The Wireless Photo Plethysmogram (PPG) and Electrodermal Activity (EDA/GSR) BioNomadix module pair consists of a matched transmitter and receiver. The module combines these two measurements because they are typically performed on the same part of the body and they are often recorded in parallel for a variety of studies. Record one or both signals.

  • The PPG channel measures Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) via optical plethysmographic methods and provides for heart rate, inter-beat interval and vasodilation/constriction data. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) can be performed on the PPG signal data
  • The EDA/GSR channel—also known as Electrodermal Response, Skin Conductance Activity/Response or Galvanic Skin Response (GSR)—provides for indication of eccrine (skin sweating) activity.

These units interface with the MP200 (or older MP200) and data acquisition and analysis platform and AcqKnowledge software, allowing advanced analysis for multiple applications and supporting acquisition of a broad range of signals and measurements.

The BIONOMADIX 2CH GSR/EDA Amplifier is compatible with the iMotions EDA/GSR Module and can also be used to capture Photo Plethysmogram (PPG) signal data in order to perform Heart Rate Variability (HRV).
