Abstract
Recently we developed the open-source FlexNIRS: a battery-operated, wireless, wearable oximeter whose self-calibrating geometry allows measurements of oxygen saturation in tissue. The first implementation of the device operating at 100 Hz has been validated and is enrolled in several measurement campaigns across different research laboratories. A recent firmware upgrade provides 266 Hz sampling rate, and hardware modifications provide improved form factor, wearability, and multi-modal acquisition. The new version is currently adopted in multiple clinical measurement campaigns focusing on pulsatile component analysis. We will present the instrument performance, its recent and future upgrades, and the applications where the device is currently in use.
