Readable Range Readable Range ProcedureProcedure

Power Supply RFID Reader

RFID AntennaRFID Transponder

• Antenna placed on 1” X 1” grid paper with TIRIS label facing up

• Origin = corner closest to the cable

• Points were drawn on the grid marking 3” X 3” squares.

•A ruler was placed perpendicular to each point, and the transponder was slowly dragged upward along it while the LED on the RFID reader was monitored.

Readable Range ResultsReadable Range Results• “surf” function in Matlab was used to create a diagram indicating

the three-dimensional range of readability of the antenna.

Max Velocity Testing Max Velocity Testing ProcedureProcedure

• Antenna placed on the floor and the pendulum was swung above it

•When the pendulum was stationary, the transponder was 22 inches above the antenna

•Four different pendulum orientations were used

RFID Component Testing RFID Component Testing ConclusionsConclusions• The area of greatest readability is centered about the antenna

• The antenna must be positioned so that the runner’s foot will come within 20 inches of the antenna’s center

• The runner’s stride should be parallel to the length of the antenna since that particular experiment yielded the fastest detectable speeds

•The world record for track and field is 23.04 mph and average running speed is 17 mph (Holladay).

• The antenna is appropriate for the FIT System design project.

Heart Rate Subsystem Heart Rate Subsystem Component TestingComponent Testing

• Heart Rate Monitor Accuracy Test (Polar B1 Heart Rate Monitor vs. EKG

• Conclusion: Polar B1 heart rate monitor is accurate enough for the non-diagnostic purposes of the FIT System

• Heart Rate Monitor Placement Test

• Conclusion: Regardless of vertical placement on the user’s chest (from the navel to the armpits), the chest strap accurately transmits the user’s heart rate

FIT System Software and FIT System Software and Database TestingDatabase Testing

The FIT System Software and Database were tested throughout their development and are working properly.

CONCLUSION: The FIT System is complete and ready for implementation in the Kern Center.
