Abstract

We present an experimental arrangement based on a Michelson interferometer, which uses a He-Ne laser as a source of illumination to obtain a pattern of fringes starting from a beat of the heart simulated by a computer. Of the pattern of fringes the original sign is reconstructed and is compared with the simulation of the heart beat.
