3.2. Compression System The depth and speed of CPR are measured using optoelectronics. The main parts are: 1. Optical Switch 2. Depth gauge 3. Label on depth gauge 4. Compression spring
Fig. 13
Fig. 14 On the depth gauge there is a label placed with a pattern on it. The pattern has a period of 0.916mm, where the black stripes are 0.487mm wide and transparent parts are 0.429mm wide. When you perform CPR, the optical switch reads the pattern and then calculates the depth of compression.
