Page 4: General Information
User Manual 1. General Information 1.1. General Description The biosignalsplux Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) sensor is an optical, non-invasive sensor measures changes in the arterial translucency using the light emitter and detector built into its finger-clip housing. When the heart pumps blood, the arteries become opaquer, allowing less light to pass from the emitter on the sensor through to the receiver on the other side of finger clip. -
