Robust ballistocardiogram acquisition for home monitoring.
TL;DR: A simple, robust method is presented for acquiring high-quality, repeatable BCG signals from a modified, commercially available scale, and the BCG measurement was shown to be repeatable over 50 recordings taken from the same subject over a three week period.

Theory and Developments in an Unobtrusive Cardiovascular System Representation: Ballistocardiography
TL;DR: It is pertinent to revise all the information available on the ballistocardiogram’s physiological interpretation, its typical waveform information, its features and distortions, as well as the state of the art in device implementations.

Some technics for recording the ballistocardiogram directly from the body
William Dock,Felix Taubman +1 more
TL;DR: The motion of the body recorded by a sphygmograph applied to the head, by a photocell partly shaded by a ruler across the shins, or by a coil in a magnetic field provides a satisfactory ballistocardiogram.
