In that context, this paper examines the development and detailed design of the xEMU Wired Heart Rate Monitor (WHRM). This paper outlines the challenging technical requirements, significant architectural trades, technical solutions required to overcome these challenges, and a status of the detailed design. The preliminary results of Design Verification Testing (DVT) as it relates to WHRM are also provided, along with a forward strategy for final maturation into a flight-ready design.application/pdfengheart ratemedicalxEMUxPGSbiomedicalPresentation
