SensorTrigger – movisensXS-Feature for Interactive Assessment
Ever wanted to gather more insight into your participants day to day life?
Utilising our German made range of activity monitors allows you to ask a question based on physiological data gathered by the sensors. movisens offers the only research grade sensor triggering functionality for Experience Sampling studies.
This feature allows you to capture the contextual information from a participant, enabling you to fully understand the objective physiological data. Instead of looking at the data and wondering what that spike or dip was in a particular metric, you can use this feature to ask the participant themselves at the moment it occurs.
We’re the only company in ambulatory assessment with class leading products in objective AND subjective measurements. Our research grade sensors analyze physiological parameters as the sensor gathers the data, and then transmits the results via BluetoothSmart to a smartphone installed with movisensXS.
movisensXS evaluates the data within your customisable algorithm, and as a result of the evaluation, can trigger a questionnaire or an intervention on the smartphone.
Whether Interactive Ambulatory Assessment (IAA), Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMAs) or Ecological Momentary Interventions (EMIs), with movisens you’ll realize innovative research ideas and capture insightful data at the right time, in real time and in everyday life.
Using our simple drag and drop interface, you select what physiological parameter (or parameters!) you’d like to utilize and build your own triggering algorithm. When investigating physiological changes such as high activity levels, sedentary behavior, changes in heart rate variability (RMSSD), heart rate thresholds, or electrodermal activity, these parameters can act as triggers within your study.
You have the freedom to select different algorithms for each individual participant, and also further customize the existing algorithms within groups. There's a range of existing algorithms developed for specific research projects that provide a small sampling of what is possible with this innovative technology.
If you have an existing algorithm that you would like to utilize, or an idea for a physiological marker that you would like to have as a trigger, please contact us to discuss its implementation.
