What are the advantages of BlueTooth Wireless Technology?
The NeXus-10 is 10 channel system with a built-in wireless BlueTooth connection to your PC. It runs up to 20 hours on just two AA batteries and can send all 10 channels at high speeds (up to 2048 samples per sec.) at full 24 bit resolution. Because it is wireless you are able to use this small portable system almost anywhere. Your patient/client is no longer attached to the computer with a wire and is free to move up to about 10 meters away from the PC. This is not only an advantage for sport physiologists and physiotherapists, but also for those who work with ADHD kids. These kids tend to ‘move a lot’. It means there is one less wire to worry about. Several medical BlueTooth enabled products have been approved by the FDA and it is now considered very safe and reliable technology. Because BlueTooth uses very low power (about a 1000 times less than most mobile phones) it is extremely unlikely it will ever interfere with other devices, signals or sensors.
