Synopsis

The overall purpose of this research is to develop a system capable of real-time personal positioning and physiological monitoring. The system will be composed of a shirt having non-invasive physiological sensors, Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, wireless data transceiver, and real-time PC-based control station. The specific purpose of this research phase was to determine the performance capabilities of a modified LifeShirtTM alone (without GPS) in a high gravitational force environment with the data being sent wirelessly in real- time. The LifeShirt" was modified with a real-time wireless transmission system. The modified LifeShirt" system was tested in Air Force Research Laboratory Human Effectiveness (AFRL/HE) Dynamic Environment Simulator (DES) to compare the LifeShirt" data to the data of DES health monitoring system. Eight high-G tests (up to 7.5 G's) were conducted for this research. The test results clearly indicated that the wireless system performed well in transmitting the LifeShirt" physiology data in real-time.
