The use of approaches, such as real-time operating systems, often requires significant material or human resources (operating time, the special administration and programming skills and etc.). In this paper we propose an alternative approach for the implementation of real-time mode in the experiments on muscle preparations (papillary muscles, trabeculae, walls of vessels) based on an external input-output cards with built-in analog-to-digital/digital-to-analog converters and signal processor. As a result, we developed a hardware-software complex for studying the mechanical properties of biological materials (muscles) in real-time mode. This solution has a convenient and easy-to-use user interface, and requires a minimum of computing resources and minimal cost of electricity.展开更多
