The Respiration Monitor Belt measures human respiration rates. It should be noted
that this sensor must be attached to a Gas Pressure Sensor.
Suggested Experiments
- Study the resting respiration pattern of students.
- Investigate respiration patterns that have been interrupted by simple activities
such as holding of breath or drinking a beverage.
- Compare respiration rates of athletes and non-athletes.
- Compare respiration rates of females and males.
- Monitor respiration rates, including recovery time, before and after vigorous exercise.
- Monitor respiration rates before and after drinking of caffeinated beverages.
- Measure the effect of increased levels of carbon dioxide gas on respiration rate.
- Compare respiration rate and heart rate (using the Heart Rate Monitor). Students
can compare the effect of exercise, body types, food or drink consumption, or carbon
dioxide levels on these two rates.
