System for averaging physiological data recorded on film or paper.
A simple electro-mechanical system has been constructed to convert photographically-recorded data into a form that can be readily handled by a small, special-purpose averaging computer. Manual tracing of a series of records results in the production of an immediate and highly reproducible average response. The method has proven to be particularly useful in the analysis of electromyograms obtained during various form of locomotion.
