Popis: | A method using six sensors for measuring the activity of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is presented. The measured parameters are: skin potential, skin resistance, skin blood flow, skin temperature, instantaneous heart rate, and instantaneous respiratory frequency. The multiparametric measurement of variables of different natures provides complementary information relating to ANS activity. The sensors are characterized by being non-invasive and painless and provide minimal discomfort to the subjects. The sensor's instrumentation system is portable and can be used in laboratory and in real conditions (sports field, on board a vehicle, air-traffic control room, etc.) and presents high immunity to noise. experiments were performed on 11 marksmen during a shooting competition to study the correlation between ANS activity and shooting performance on the basis of the subjects' control of their emotional reactivity and concentration/relaxation technique. |
