Abstract

Hardware and software aspects of a semiparallel electrical impedance microtomography (EIT) system designed for highspeed data acquisition employing cost-effective measurements via subsampling techniques are covered in this paper. We explore the effects of the Nyquist theorem on sampling EIT system implementations through software and hardware testing. These experiments focus on the benefits of a semi-parallel approach, which involves serializing the excitation current and integrating parallelism into acquisition measurement hardware, operating under sub-Nyquist conditions. This innovative methodology promises greater efficiency and performance, potentially increasing the capabilities of EIT systems in diverse applications.
