Multichannel recording and analysis of physiological data using a personal computer.
A flexible data acquisition system was designed for an Apple IIe computer. For implementation, we used a microcomputer capable of recording 4 channels simultaneously with a selectable sample rate; this information was saved on a floppy disc and the recordings could be evaluated later. This evaluation is accomplished by reproducing the analog signals on display and calculating a histogram after deleting artefacts in the signal.
