Heart
Three-lead ECG on Astroskin, single-lead on Hexoskin, with heart rate and HRV.
Training Research With Astroskin and Hexoskin
Bring Physiology Into the Training Story
Fire, police, and emergency-medical training put people under load in defined scenarios. Astroskin and Hexoskin record heart, breathing, and movement from briefing to recovery, so instructors and researchers see where the demand builds.
Astroskin adds three-lead ECG, SpO₂, and skin temperature for heat and exertion. Hexoskin records ECG, breathing, and movement across the whole group.
Breathing
Two textile bands for breathing rate, tidal volume, and minute ventilation.
Oxygen & Temperature
Astroskin adds PPG, SpO₂, and skin temperature.
Live & Review
Live data on Android with Hexoskin OneSDK, every session in Hexoskin OneView.
Every Phase of the Scenario
Record the whole exercise under the gear, from briefing to recovery. Scenario events marked in Hexoskin OneApp line up with heart rate, breathing rate, and movement, so instructors see where the demand builds and how quickly people recover, and can compare drills, crews, and sessions on the same terms.
Solutions Tailored to Every Use Case
Choose Astroskin for the widest set of signals, or Hexoskin to equip larger groups. Both share one recording, software, and data ecosystem.
Astroskin
A wearable system with three-lead ECG, dual-band respiration, PPG and oxygen saturation, skin temperature, and movement, for programs that need this wider combination of signals.
