Zephyr™ HxM benefits
The Zephyr™ HxM offers product partners and end-users multiple benefits:
Product partners
Zephyr™ HxM provides genuine field-based monitoring, allowing accurate heart rate, speed and distance calculation and complex R-R analysis. The fabric-based sensors are supplied on a fabric strap or can be easily integrated into apparel, and patented BioSense™ algorithms address noise and distortion issues that characterize typical fabric sensors. The Zephyr™ HxM standard manufacturing processes offer a cost-effective solution for high volume manufacturing.
End-users
The Zephyr™ HxM offers a critical advantage in boosting performance by collecting and measuring stable, high-quality and accurate heart rate data for advanced analysis. Changes in condition and response can be quantified over time and in real time. The Zephyr™ HxM maintains its performance during extreme movement and perspiration, and does not restrict the wearer in any way.
