- You receive a written recommendation: platform, quantities, software and data access, training, and next steps.
What Hexoskin measures
ECG and heartbeat timing
Single-lead ECG at 256 Hz with 0.0064 mV resolution, supporting beat detection, RR intervals, heart rate, and heart rate variability.
Breathing
Two respiratory inductance plethysmography channels, thoracic and abdominal, at 128 Hz, for breathing rate, timing, and ventilation estimates.
Movement
Three-axis accelerometer for activity, posture, and step data, synchronised with the cardiac and respiratory signals.
The rechargeable recorder collects up to 36 continuous hours and stores recordings locally for later synchronisation. Garments come in men's and women's ProShirt and Original versions plus junior sizes.
Frequently asked questions
Is Hexoskin suitable for children?
Yes. Junior garment sizes are available, and Hexoskin has been used in pediatric research. Describe the age range in the form so we size the kit correctly.
Can participants wear Hexoskin at home?
Yes. The garment is machine washable, the recorder runs up to 36 hours, and data synchronises later, so multi-day recordings outside the laboratory are common.
How quickly will Hexoskin reply?
A member of the research team replies by email within two business days. If your timeline is short, say so in the description and we prioritise the reply.
Does Hexoskin sell to individual researchers and small labs?
Yes. Hexoskin supplies single kits as well as fleet quantities, and the Hexoskin+ program offers discounts on qualifying quantities for research and teaching.
Is my information shared outside Hexoskin?
No. Your details are used by the Hexoskin team to answer your request and are handled under the Hexoskin privacy policy.
