I’m currently working on a project over at LJMU (among other things) involving wireless heart monitoring. The project goes live later this month so I’ll talk more about it then but for the time here are some snapshots of my physiology in situations I don’t normally get to record with the “wired to my desktop” setup
In figures 1 and 2 each plot represents one minute of averaged heartbeat rate. Just as a side note my heartbeat rate at rest is typically in the 60-70 bpm range.

Figure 1- Sleep Cycle: Heartbeat rate from 12am to 9am on 07-02-10

Figure 2 – Sleep Cycle: Heartbeat rate from 2am to 9am on 08-02-10

Figure 3 – Travel from the Office to Home
In Figure 3 each plot represents 10 seconds of average heartbeat rate. As you can see when I leave the office I start with a HR of ~70 bpm. But then it skyrockets to ~120 bpm as I walk home. Walking being the subjective term here. I guess the monitor would say I’m more jogging than running. As I reach the train station at 17:35 my heart rate returns to its rest state until I get off the train at 17:45.

[...] I and Steve have a resting heartbeat rate of roughly 60-70 beats per minute (see Wireless Monitoring Trials for more information). There are several events of particular interest in the data we collected [...]
