Tow-Int Tech Unveils Portable Metabolic Analyzer, Redefining Sports Science Research
Tow-Int Portable Metabolic Analyzer for Sports Science
Tow-Int Tech has launched an innovative device tailored for the field of sports human science—a portable respiratory metabolic measurement system. This product integrates laboratory-grade metabolic detection capabilities into a portable unit only the size of a tissue package, enabling researchers to accurately capture dynamic human energy metabolism in real-world exercise scenarios. It provides unprecedented technical support for sports performance analysis, training optimization, and physical fitness research.
Designed specifically for sports research, this device integrates three core technological modules: medical-grade gas sensors that enable real-time monitoring of oxygen and carbon dioxide with 0.01% precision; an intelligent flow control system that ensures airflow stability across varying exercise intensities; and multi-modal respiratory monitoring technology, which synchronously captures key metrics such as oxygen uptake, CO₂ production, metabolic rate, respiratory quotient, and nutrient consumption ratios, while also supporting simultaneous monitoring of heart rate and blood oxygen saturation.
During measurement, the subject wears the portable respiratory metabolic measurement system via a harness and dons a mask, allowing for the assessment of energy metabolism during free movement.
